Bassett and Miller are best friends and were always expected to be a tandem deal. I just didn't see us beating out Pedo, Iowa and Oklahoma State for them.

In other words, we've seen this before

bassett committed. miller goes wherever bassett does. pamper that kid, fly him to the sertc every weekend and make him live like a king. hes worth it tbh, hes a game changer, a multiple gold medal winner.. takes a good program to an elite program

miller is the EXACT SAME too

word a cannot describe how big this is. I know wrestling funds itself but throw these guys some cheese. this is massive

I been here since day 0.

So.

Much.

Alliteration.

WOW. BIG HAUL!

Plan for the worst and hope for the best, not the other way around.

This is freaking huge if they end up here. Holy shit. This immediately brings in at least one national contender when they step on campus.

I thought in wrestling this was a tag team, no?

You're right.

Whoop! There it is!

This is awesome. Well-done!

Thanks for the good Hokie news.

Looking at FloWrestling, Bassett had originally committed to Iowa, a perennial top 5 team and the national champion from a few years back.

I think we big dogged a big dog.

Love to see us big dogging for a change. Plus, I grew up with a St. Bernard and a half St. Bernard-half collie, so love the big dogs in general.

Even if they don't end up finally coming to VT, there are a bunch of guys looking to see what the draw is.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

Bassett makes it official and officially signs with VT today along with Rocha, Jacobsen, and Rozas
