I’m more excited about OSU wrestling than any other sport right now.

These transfers from PSU are expected because if they remain at PSU they will never start. I don’t understand accepting Steen, his college record is not impressive. Facundo beating Fish and Amine is really impressive. I expect we will continue to attract Big 10 leftovers. They saw what DT and staff can do. As far as Cowboy wrestling becoming some people’s favorite OsU sport, that is how it was in the 1960’s and 70’s. Football had bad teams. Henry Iba went fishing in off season rather than go recruiting and after the 1965 season, his players lacked talent. Baseball was good, but no one really cared. Golf was good but was not a spectator sport. So wrestling was the most exciting sport to watch at OSU. And so it shall be. Wait till the cream of the crop hits the mat as freshmen in 2026.
