Exactly, 546 (Mahaska Ct., that is)!WDM Hawkeye, the maneuver in question is named after the three brothers that mastered it... Ken, Ray and Joe.
No. I'm not exaggerating. He literally had an illegal kimura and was trying to break Micic's arm. Unbelievable that the ref didn't stop it.
Retherford is a physical wrestler and pushes the limit, but I've never seen him intentionally and deliberately attempt to injure an opponent.
The match was over. DeSanto was about to lose my major and went for a kimura submission with 10 seconds left.
I happened to watch that match as I was interested in seeing Desanto. Training in mma I was calling it out to my girls as you could see he was adjusting his hips to pull the Kimora. You can clearly see him readjust his hips when Micic adjusts his arm/shoulder to try to lock it in. There was clearly intent to do damage. Surprised that refs couldn't see what was being attempted. I know refs on the high school level that can identify a possible submission attempt. I stand by what I said earlier, kid needs to be out of the tournament. Autistic or not he needs to be punished
That's because you tap out if they have it locked. You are admitting that they could break your arm if they wanted to.I watch a lot of mma and have seen a bunch of Kimura attempts. Breaking bones isn’t common.
I saw an attempt to apply leverage and turn his opponent, not necessarily do damage.

It’s an inside joke, as you might have guessed. Bman and I grew up with some Kimura kids. They always come to mind when the term is mentioned.
The interview was very impressive, indeed. Micic seems like a super kid. Great to see him having so much success, although I'll have to root against him for the sake of the team race. Sure would be happy for him if he won a title. Really talented wrestler, and a very well-spoken, cheerful young man -- on and off the mat.In the ten seconds leading up to this 12 second clip, DeSanto was penalized for smacking him upside the head and another one for ripping Micic's head gear off. How he wasn't DQ after this last freak out I don't know.
Impressed with how Micic handled it during the match and in the interview.
Hearing Iowa fans may get to see a lot more of DeSanto in the near future.

This would make me happy.
Not if it's because he's transferring to Fun State it wouldn't.
I can’t wait to hear how him, Teske, RBY, Teasdale, Nick Lee, and Busiello are all going to seemlessly fit into the lineup.Not if it's because he's transferring to Fun State it wouldn't.

so a rutgers fan posts on an Iowa board and you guys think he is coming to happy valley. interesting.Good point. I should clarify if he transfers to Iowa it would make me happy.

ps. I don’t expect to see him anywhere besides Drexel.

He was one of my favorite wrestlers coming into this tournament (I didn't see his loss to Tucker prior to the tournament). After watching the Micic match, I was rooting strongly for him to lose to Delvechio.
What he did at the end of the Micic match was an absolute punk move. He also put his hands on the ref twice. I'm completely shocked that he didn't get thrown out of the tournament. Micic couldn't have handled it any better. He kept his poise and basically was laughing/smiling at DeSanto.
I still love DeSanto's style of wrestling. I hope he can figure out how to handle defeat better. If he does, he will definitely get a 2nd chance from me. He has a lot of work to do though.
I'm also surprised that he or his coaches haven't made a public apology.
Given the way he was screaming and almost fighting his coach after his last match, I wouldn’t be surprised if his coaches are done with him.
Not surprised to hear transfer rumors.
I would love to see a quality 133 pound wrestler come to Iowa but not this one. He is a bad egg and we don't need the likes of him in our room.Good point. I should clarify if he transfers to Iowa it would make me happy.
OK, smalls -- let's hear your reasons. This should be interesting. Unless it's nothing more than an April fool's tweet, which I assume it is.
April Fool's!
