With major college visits already done, Bo Bassett’s next college on the list is the dominant Oklahoma State University. The wrestler’s upcoming visit to Oklahoma State University has stirred up several rumors, with hints leading to his diversion towards OSU. The questions, however, come with respect to the changing dynamics of the OSU wrestling team, the Cowboys, following David Taylor’s addition as the head coach.
Dominating the mat in his professional career previously as a wrestler and now as a head coach, David Taylor’s coaching for the Cowboys has come as a big turnover for the team, with their performance setting a new bar. Training a group of youngsters came as difficult at the start, but Taylor’s management of the team has set up quite dominant wrestlers in the team, providing fierce competition.
Undergoing their popularity as the top prospect, Bo Bassett is an asset to many, but the choice now comes down to him making his dream selection of his future college. The Cowboys defeated Wyoming at home for the first time; the win by 32-6 at Gallagher-Iba Arena saw Bo Bassett in attendance of the dual. Showcasing fierce competition against its competitors, Bo Bassett’s addition to the team comes with a great chance for head coach David Taylor to train and nurture wrestlers like him in the team.
