right?!!!
I kept going back to those results thinking there must be some kind of mistake. Freshman running the NCAA meet record and beating a bunch of seniors in a world class time.
I know there's a distance bias here but I'd rate this the top story of the meet, a bit ahead of the 5000m.
He had two touchdowns in Oregon's spring football game as well... choices for this young talent
Doping much?

lalang is a senior breaking a meet record... not a freshman on a month of focused training..
Doped to the GILLS !
Don't get so excited.
He isn't white

Not entirely out of the blue. Kid has run faster basically every race and went 13.27 to pass to nats. Would like to see him run the 100/200 right now as well.

10.48/20.75 HS PRs... right now safe to say hes good for a significantly faster 100 (~10.25-10.35). Easily one of the fastest football players in the nation, with Ducks #1 receiver Bralon Addison tearing his ACL coupled with Allens Spring football performance he should be getting some significant TV time on the football field this coming season. Hasn't played yet but as a 4-star recruit in Oregons offense with elite speed with Mariota at QB... barring unforeseen circumstances this dude will probably have to make a big decision eventually between track (at which he is an Olympic talent) and the NFL. Maybe both a la Demps?
Tao of Steve is likely black. He is in shock that a white kid ran that fast. Eventually, Tao of Steve will come to accept the latest great white hope.
He is Super White.
Richard Kilty, John Teeters, Devon Allen, Christophe Lemaitre
That lineup will barely beat the US women's team from London '12.
lol. "great white hope" before the race maybe. the others are great black hopes. this kid is the champ... not a hopeful
He goes by the handle @Devon Allen13.

I can't believe that he broke Merrit's NCAA record (what was the wind on Aries' by the way?)
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
