    Two classic Jennings videos, almost out kicking Lassiter as a freshman at NCAAs:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSX7YXuv1pQ&list=UUDJB7rKkUICd2Vlm3tce2-w

    and again here at PRE in 2000, along with a full drum circle intro:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSX7YXuv1pQ&list=UUDJB7rKkUICd2Vlm3tce2-w

    Long live the king. This was a golden era of T & F, just before Webb took the world by storm, the end of the American distance running "dark ages," Jennings was a bad ass.

    With all of the PC types in T & F these days, I truly miss Gabe Jennings. Oh, what could have been.

    Also, I just spotted Sage running at Pre as a high school senior in the second video. Good times.

    It looks like those two links are the same 10:04 videos. No drum circle in either.

    Also, I forgot how much I hate Carol Lewis.

    Jennings was MUCH more articulate than in the other interviews I saw him in closer to the Olympic Trials. He actaully seemed normal in htat interview.

    Lassiter moved out to the edge of lane 2 down the homestretch and Berryhill had to move out. If Lassiter had held his line in lane one, Gabe would have won. Not by much, but he had to run around Berryhill and that cost him a meter or so.
