We’re back in the mix!!!!

💤 Tom Brands waking up this morning making sure it wasn’t a dream:

No, Bassett decommitting to Iowa wasn’t about money. No, his Dad wasn’t “wanting to coach at Iowa”. He is coaching at one of the best HS programs in the country! No, Brands isn’t retiring, but probably should. Lots of rumors swirling. The truth is Iowa can’t figure out how to do

He said that the coaching staff told the Bassett family they were unable to pay for their travel, due to compliance. The Wrestling Room (Pat Mineo) added that this led to Tom clashing with Bo’s mother, ultimately severing the relationship between the family and Iowa

Imagine calling up the mother of the #1 recruit in the nation who committed to your school and telling her off? I imagine most head coaches know not to do that…

This was before he decomitted, fyi. …and a contributing factor (clearly).

I think we have a new nickname for DT from Iowa wrestling fans for the message boards 😂

craziest offseason ever

Great Beach Day! 🏖️

hawkeye_reggie You just made this up. Smh

Iowa fans are making up that Bo’s Dad wanted to “take over the program” which is a complete lie. lol He coaches one of the top HS teams in nation and lives in PA… Just because their RTC sucks and lacks creativity and they couldn’t deliver doesn’t mean the Bassett’s are to blame.

Update on Ben Askren: the infections are finally under control and now the focus is on finding a match and preparing Ben for a lung transplant. Ben was awake and trying to ask for wrestling results despite not being able to talk yet, which is awesome to hear! Keep praying for

How many wrestlers are still making a living in the sport after 40? D1, D2, D3, NAIA, JUCO, HS—doesn’t matter. I’d bet 99.9% are out. That’s a massive group with unmatched character and connections. Now imagine if they had an outlet—with purpose and community. That’s WIBN.

The boys have already started the trash talking on Instagram 🍿 Don’t forget to follow us there as well instagram.com/rafwrestlingus…

+ Rutgers Wrestling please forgive me, New Jersey!
