Suriano also lost to Vito at the 2019 Senior Nationals. That was at 57kg, so Suriano was at 125 in 2019. No signs of running out of gas there for either of them.

This is a crazy stat if true (I am not going to comb through the brackets).
The multiple day weigh ins will only effect the first round of Big 10’s and the First Round and Quarterfinals at the NCAA’s.
Finals he will have all day to recover
Finals he will have all day to recover
Yes, but when you weigh in a multiple days it suppresses your weight and uses your legs... That's my point, making weight three days in a row does hurt those cutting hard...despite the long recovery period on the final day.
I don’t think ADS is going to give up his title that easy.
I typically don’t pay too much attention to what other teams are doing other than how what they do may affect the Hawks, but with Michigan not being on Iowa’s dual schedule, I couldn’t help but notice how good Michigans dual on Jan 21st with PSU will be. If Suriano isn’t down to 125 by then we could see RBY vs Suriano, then Nick Lee vs Micic. How bout Aaron Brooks vs Myles Amine?! Should be great. Oh and when it’s over on the B10 Iowa wrestles Ohio St on the road. Good way to spend a Friday night.

That sounds marvy. However, we’ll have to check seasonal flight patterns of certain migratory birds before some match ups can be confirmed.
Funny you mention it, I recently watched an interview of Suriano after he beat ADS to make the finals of the B10. The interviewer asks how he feels about Micic medically forfeiting and Suriano is clearly disgusted. He laughs and says “it seems like a trend” and goes off on all the injuries he has and talks about him coming to fight. Could b some fur flying in that practice room.
Kerk vs Parris after Kerk beat him in free is a match I’ll be waiting to see as well. Brucki vs Dean/Beard not bad either.
It’s a tad ridiculous is it not? Tough to call him a student athlete when he’s clearly just a hired gun for a semester. I wonder if he attends any classes at all.
It’s been a rule for so long I’m not sure when it changed.
I wonder if he actually will attend in their masters program? I tend to think his time there maybe just to get him to 2024 trials so maybe he will try for his masters. On the other hand I think he most likely just wants the fame and his last shot on making that NIL money then going MMA.

I'm surprised he got past the U of M admissions office.
Michigan is no threat to win the title. They're a distant 3rd, if that. Getting a likely 20 points is huge, but they could easily not AA at the following weights:
133, 149, 157, 165, 174, 197. I bet Brucki doesn't AA. 197 is unreal.
One of the big reasons Suriano is at Michigan is because of Micic. They practiced a lot together at ASU. They get along pretty well all things considering.
I think it’s even fair to say they aren’t guaranteed an AA at 141. It’s been 3 years since Micic wrestled a folkstyle match. We still haven’t seen him this year, and he’s never wrestled at 141. I don’t think it’s outlandish to think he could lose in QF and then Rd12. Not to mention he has been injured in the past and not been fully healthy come March.
There are no guarantees, but the odds of Micic being an AA are extremely high, IMO. If he's healthy I would be stunned if he didn't, but yeah it's a ways off. Maybe he'll just wrestle Big Tens and Nationals like the trend seems to be going..........
So…. He was right…
Ha! A new term for the day. Parachute competitors. Delivered to the arena by helicopter parents.
Micic is extremely talented and I fear that if he isn't actually pulling a ton of weight he could be very lethal.
Not disagreeing with Nicky push ups being a hired gun for a semester but he did Graduate from Rutgers already with high marks so probably didn't have a problem with admissions at Michigan

How would you know his grades? That is protected private information. Are you related or his coach?
What. Neither.. but when guys do good academically it's not a secret!..Pretty sure I remember most Iowa fans knew all of PD2s grades
Was he named to any academic all B1G or similar? I don’t recall that he was, but if he was then sure he probably “did good.”
If he graduated with high marks from Rutgers, good for him. Happy to be proven wrong.
