MattM Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Micic gets the Bronze. Nice recovery after being beat out early from the Championship bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Brigade Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 How can you not get behind that guy? So talented, so hard-working...I hate that he's sitting out another folkstyle season, but I'm sure he'll be even more dangerous in freestyle after next season. Can't wait to see what's next for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maligned Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Too bad he couldn't wrestle for gold. Loses to the silver medalist after holding an 8-2 lead. Anybody know whether this qualifies him for an Olympic red shirt? I think there is a provision for high placement at world juniors. Medalists at this event the last couple years before the Olympics are often in the medal hunt in the Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 This qualifies him for an Olympic redshirt, however with his recent transfer he will still only have 3 years of eligibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see what's next for him My guess is Folkstyle and the NCAA's are not what he is setting his sights on. He wants to be an Olympic Champion and get an education. An NCAA championship would just be an added bonus if he could squeeze it in. Keep up the good work Micic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backtothemat Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I like is chances in the NCAAs with two extra years of experience post high school. Look out for his 2016-17 debut year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the good work Micic.oh I agree, he definitely transferred to maximize his freestyle training, and based on his accomplishments, who can blame him. He will be a contender when he laces em up for the maize and blue, but he has his true sites set on world teams....and he's only going to get better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why anyone would think that being an Olympic or World Champion is more important than being an NCCA Champion is way beyond me. This is America and this is Indiana and by God we are folkstylers! gogoplata89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
