The individualism and accountability of wrestling made him love and follow the sport. In college he wrestled at Oklahoma State where he was a NCAA finalist losing to Cael Sanderson. Since college he has ruled in the US at his freestyle weight. In 2004 Athens Olympics he narrowly missed going to the finals and then narrowly missed medaling. |

At 2:57, the guy drilling with Jackson is John Mesenbrink, Askren's high school coach.
that weights class is STACKED internationally
I believe we will surprise some people.
I believe Ben Askren is our only legitimate chance to medal and the guys on the bubble would include Henry Cejudo, Doug Schwab who seems to be coming into his own, and Steve The Monster Mocco. The Russians have a scary team in my opinion and Iran is always right there at the top, both very deep teams with a boatload of experience at this level. Therefore, if we have a GREAT week at the Games, I believe we can walk away with no more than 4 medals, NO GOLDS. Just my opinion, let the mudslinging begin.
