Who?
Why?
Why go to Kentucky?
Was it money?
Kentucky is a great place to grow a career. New facilities, SEC status job. To be the best, you have to compete against the best. Kentucky offeres that.
Floreal is not a distance coach. So what will happen to Kentucky's distance program? New distance guy? Old assistant move up?

yeah why do they call it "the farm"? It makes it sound...weird.
Oh who cares. Wonder why he left.
Vig to Stanford?
who are the stanford distance coaches?
Only 3 T&F weenies in the 2012 London Olys is what did Floreal in. USC has 20, UCLA has 24, LSU has 11. Condoleeza Rice, Jim Plunkett, Chelsea Clinton, Phil Knight, Bruny Surin, Tiger Woods, and other powerful graduates voted Floreal out.
Kyle White is the man now!!!!
Stanford should immediately hire
Kelly MacDonald Cal Poly
Khadevis Robinson UNLV
Yvonne Scott UNLV

Used to be a horse ranch. Silicon Valley used to be mostly apricot orchards.

Patty Sue Plummer for women's and idk about the men's side.
Oh ok I get the farm thing now.
Quick, hire Allen Johnson. He's at the Chair Force on Colo now.
Get Conley's coach, Drew Wartenburgh at UC Davis 80 miles away.
Well there goes Kentucky in the crapper.
Stanford sits on 8000 acres. That's one big ass farm!
Why would he leave STANFORD for kentucky?

At Top 10 world universities like Cal, USC, UCLA, Cal Tech, etc. you have to have world level accomplishments comparable to your peers on campus to keep your gig. Professors have to start companies like California Microwave, Varian, Google, Sun Microsystems, etc. or get awarded huge U.S. Government Lab contracts, publish earth shattering breakthoughs, invent enabling technology like Internet (UCLA & Rand Corp), and have students publish innovative research and get invites to international Conferences. Athletics coaches have to win NCAA championships, win Olympic Medals and win IAAF WC medals. If you did o.k. but don't measure up to the rest of the faculty then you are allowed to leave. Lannana was allowed to resign before and now Floreal has been allowed the same courtesy.
