Bassett was last seen on the mat during the Final X, where he lost to Penn State's Blaze in the 65kg category. Shortly after this, he announced his shocking decision to decommit from Iowa after five months of association with the university. He joined the team in February 2025 and has now re-entered the recruitment portal, thanking Iowa for the opportunity.

Days after this announcement, Bassett opened up about teaching the young wrestlers at Jordan Burrough's 'All I See Is Gold Camp." He expressed gratitude for the opportunity by uploading a glimpse of the camp and penning a short message on his Instagram story that read:

"Appreciate the introduction. I'm super fired up to be here and excited. It's a blessing. I was just in your shoes not too long ago. I'm going to camps all the time. My dad brought me all over the country. I did a lot of Young Guns camps because that's where I'm from and where I grew up wrestling out in western Pennsylvania about 3 or 4 hours from here, and so it's super cool to be in this position," said Bo Bassett.

"After a lot of prayer and talking with my family, I’ve decided to decommit from the University of Iowa. This wasn’t easy, but I believe it’s not the right fit for me as a wrestler, a person, or for my faith journey. I’m grateful for the opportunity, and I’ll never speak a bad word about their program. This is about finding the place God wants me to be," Bo Bassett wrote.
