Bo Bassett dominated in FloWrestling’s Who’s Number One event and revealed his latest recruiting list Wednesday.

Now down to 16 schools, it’s starting to feel real for the No. 1 recruit in 2026 per MatScouts. Bassett won at WNO in his hometown of Johnstown, Pennsylvania.

Speaking of which, that name remained on the list.

“With WNO here in Johnstown this weekend, I got to see almost every college coach since they were all in town,” Bassett wrote in his newsletter. “It was great talking with most of them. Michigan stuck around and stopped by McCort. Jax and I had lunch with them. I then had my official home visit with them. During the visit the power went out and it became much different than the other visits. It turned out to be great and it was exciting learning about their vision for Michigan wrestling.

“I really like their focus on international wrestling and their RTC. Coach KJ was with my dad in the corner, in Budapest, when I won my first world title. As the weeks go by the graphic is getting harder and harder to eliminate teams. I have two more home visits scheduled with Oklahoma State and UPJ!”
