Looking like an "animal". Can't wait to watch this hammer in Rec Hall.
VIDEO: 4 Time National Prep Champ.... Beau Barlett
- Thread starter amalone
- Start date
The kid is so awesome. I loved him 2 years ago but he is maturing and jumping levels before our eyes. I think he has a real good shot at having Cael start him next year. I can see AA right out of the gate.
Next on my A list of must gets is VanNess - a hammer.

2 years ago I thought you said Bartlett was tapering off?
BB did fine in senior freestyle competition this past summer. I think BB/Lee is much better than Lee/Verk.
I really admire all that Verk does to be able to compete as he does with a major illness. That said, we kind of know what we have in him at this point, while BB's upside appears to be enormous. Roll with the upside, IMO.
I think Cael getting Busiello may be in his plan of the 149/157 issue. Bartlett is damn good, but I also think Cael would like to see everyone RS. I seem to remember him saying something to that effect after the 2015 “plan”.
Not me, I have been saying here was at the top of my list for must get for 2 years if not 3
That's probably his preference but some guys are good enough to go right from the start a la RBY, Hall (though it wasn't the plan all along) and maybe Bartlett?
I can vouch for your Beau Bartlett love Goggles. I discovered this forum last March and decided to read thru some older threads and you definitely identified Beau as a "high priority recruit". I've watch him since his freshman yr and felt he resembled the PSU style of scoring points & giving maximum effort by dominating opponents. As phenomenal a wrestler he is, he's equally an extra special mature young man. I compliment his parents for how they have raised him. His post match finals interview showed that he's very excited to carry on the PSU tradition. WE ARE very lucky to have him represent us.

Yes, you liked him 2 years ago, but also said he was tapering off, like Ferrari more etc. Also said Bartlett was sending himself down the rankings.
They don’t call him BB King for nothing!
Nico and Zain did well as freshmen.
Bartlett will have to be in lineup right away ,because Nick Lee will have to move up to 149 and Bartlett moves in at 141. The big question is at 125 , will Robbie Howard be ready after a lost senior year. Maybe bring in a portal transfer at 125, I have one in mind coming off a red shirt and will have 2 yrs left.
Yes, he is in states and wrestled on Feb 22 .so maybe he is good to go, but it was a shoulder so there's that to worry about.
May I ask why you mention Nick Lee will have to move up? I haven't heard that he's having any trouble at 141.
OK. Thanks. Maybe I missed it, but don't remember reading anything about him on this board.
Yes, Howard was also was named outstanding wrestler at his regional state qualifying tournament a few days ago.
It's just good to see him healthy enough to do that, given how this season has gone.
Nick has never weighed 149 in his life. He’ll defend his 141 title next year. Book it!!
Highly doubt he’s never weighed more than 149 considering he’s wrestled 141 for 3 years. But also likely expect to see him still at 141 next year.
That is the OPPOSITE of what he said. He said he doubted that he never weighed over 150 and so do I.
thanks! Read it wrong.That is the OPPOSITE of what he said. He said he doubted that he never weighed over 150 and so do I.
