I was not aware that they ADD the points from the cross country team to the ACC Track and Field Championship point total? There are 21 events in the sport of track and field and the distance events(4-5 events)are a small part of this.Did I miss something? Are they addng Cross Country to the list of events in the Olympic Games?

How much does the 7-1 date and 2013 class recruiting season play into these decisions? Take a look at a program like UNC who has a much leaner 2012 class of signees (in comparison to 2010 & 11 classes), so they can't afford another light year. Additionally, apparently the admin has targeted a high profile sprint coach from the West coast to come in and run the program, but the distance people aren't too happy with that idea and are pushing back. I would think that they could face a mass exodus of distance talent if they go in that direction.
