He did have some room - I watched an interview with him on the news and he said he thought he had 725 in him that day.
From the looks of it, I wouldn't doubt it. I saw several final lifts that looked like there was some room. My nephew had another 20-30 lbs left in his squat, way more than his best at regionals two weeks ago. That would have insured a 3rd-4th place finish
^^^ I agree, I'm guessing 525 - 550 ... fucking crazy. I heard somewhere that he did 455 raw about a year ago.

I want to like Slow99 since people I know say he's a good guy, but just about everything he posts is condescending and passive aggressive.
Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?
You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.
585 would be the world record (raw) in his weight class (275lb)
(in before the 5.85 jokes)
We didn't have anyone capable of that kind of weight when I was lifting, but with the way he jumped in weight, I wouldn't think that would be too far out of his reach, however he would have to attend a sanctioned meet to do it
