Micic to 141

[Antitroll2828 996]

Micic going 141 this year, big jump from the 125.6 he wrestled at the Olympics, should be interesting to see

Interesting - so is Ragusin expected to start?

Freshman year 15?

He was a massive 57kg but I think he’ll get manhandled by the top 141 guys.

At 141, Rivera vs Micic would be an interesting match.  when Rivera was bumping up from 125, it wasn't very exciting, but now I think it would be different.

Nick Lee gets a chance to avenge his only other high school loss at Michigan January 21st.

The Michigan website still has him at 133.

Where did you see 141?

[Perry 1,428]

My thoughts (assuming good weight gain):

1. Lee

2. Micic

3. Eirman

4. Rivera

Nick Lee also lost to Chad Red

[Bozak2018 94]

And he's already avenged that multiple times.  This is a chance to avenge his only other loss.

Nice bracket that will be.

Hence the use of the word other.

Good for him, he definitely has the frame for it. 
I think he'll be tough

Really?  I actually think he matches up better, style wise, with Lee.  Now I don't think he beats Lee or Eierman, but Eierman is a style nightmare for Micic.  He would essentially need to finish clean the very first time against Eierman and then RUUUUUUNNNN the rest of the match.  Eierman's scrambling will be a bear for Micic, because he isn't known for finishing straight through the legs and hips and will end up at angles where Eierman excels.  On top of that, Eierman should "horse" him easily and ride him like a broken pony if he gains that position!

Meanwhile,  against Lee, he could at least make it a takedowns centric match.  If size/strength doesn't give Lee enough of a mat advantage,  Micic is best on his feet and could possibly win a takedown battle.  Now, I think Lee's pace and size will wear Micic down too much to overcome, but I would definitely give Micic a better chance in that match than against Eierman...

I've got Eierman winning so that he'd end up as 5-4-3-2-1

Lee to Miccic during the introductions of the '22 NCAA Finals:

 

"Hey Steve, remember that time in high school when we faced each other in the State Finals....me a freshman and you a senior.....then ten years later faced each other in the NCAA finals.......remember that?''

Is this a Geriatric joke?  Implying Micic has dementia?  I mean you prefaced this by saying, "during the introductions..."  One would hope you could "remember" that AS it is actually happening!!

It was the state semi finals, but that would be a funny conversation.

Maybe he should stop wrestling in college and just focus on UWW point tournaments if he wants to prepare for his 65kg career internationally.  What is this, his 8th year post-high school?

I don't get why it bothers people so much.  As long as it follows the rules, what does it matter if he is 18 or 38?  If you love the sport and love your school, God bless you if you can do it for as long as you possibly can...

2 1/2  years since his last folk match - beating Pletcher.
