yep he sorta just goes for stuff he had some wild ones with Andonian. Probably not the guy you want to wrestle your first ever college match with. Firmly believe PJ will beat him probably badly but there is some level of intrigue because of their styles.

I looked Hippolito up on OU's wrestling site. He wasn't just A judoka, he was a multiple time world BJJ champion.  Damn. 

I've taken some BJJ lessons, and my observation is that they don't really throw that much. I wonder how he became throw happy?

Hippolito beating Ed Scott at ACC Championship. I think he is known more as a thrower, but he has very active footwork and stingy defense as well.

Oh man, that stance. Dude must have a lot of faith in his quickness. Coach needs to work on that stance with him.
