Georgia’s distance recruits are pretty much the Milton HS team. That doesn’t seem like a recipe for success in D1.

Alabama

Arkansas

Ole Miss

Tennessee

Kentucky

Texas A&M

Missouri

Georgia

Florida

Auburn

LSU

Vanderbilt

Ole miss will surprise and beat Arkansas.

Vanderbilt will surprise and beat 4-5 teams.

And so will UF. Except them to be the best they’ve been in some years. Top 4 for sure at SEC’s. If not better. They’re strong

I agree with this. They are bringing in some really good young and veteran type talent this season that I'm guessing some people don't know about.

I agree that Florida will be better but I would not go as far as to say top 4. No way they get near the top 3 and I don't think they are a better team than UK who even though they lost Jacob Thomson will still be good. Not to mention Tennessee who came in 5th last year and I am fairly certain they bring back everybody who raced at SECs last year for them and has one of the best runners in the conference.

I think top 6 is realistic with huge things on the horizon with Solinsky at the helm.

If UF is not top 3, expect Mr. Mouse to take over writing the workouts if he hasn't done so already.

I think the Mizzou men will finish top three and will likely qualify for nats. Definitely a hot take, but hear me out. Coach Burns is in his fifth year with the program and has helped facilitate the creation of a team culture that is conducive to winning. No longer are there guys on the team (recruited by previous coaches) who spend more time smoking and drinking than they do training. All the guys seem to be bought in to the program and very committed to one another. Also, they're finally able to get good talent from in state because of this shift in culture. Prior to this shift, there were many high school coaches from the state that didn't want their athletes to even consider Mizzou because of the cancerous culture (partying, drugs, etc.) influenced by the athletes recruited by previous coaches. But it seems to me that Coach Burns (and Coach Smith) have gained the trust of the state and have been able to add a great recruiting class to an already solid roster. I truly believe that if they can stay healthy, they can rival Ole Miss for the runner up spot this year and compete for the title in the coming years.

I think you said this last year and we saw how that worked out

Drug problem? When was there ever a drug problem at Mizzou?

LSU is a lock for top 3.

Better chance of being in the bottom 3 than top 3.... I can't wait to come back to this post in November.

I heard a rumor that one of LSU's football players tampered with a PED test have been under a more watchful eye and have had to cut back on their PED programs.

Actually most of us still try to steer our athletes away from Mizzou. When top Missouri recruits go to Mizzou, they never do anything. When top Missouri recruits go elsewhere, there tends to be much more success. Mizzou will likely disappoint again this year. I am hopeful that Coach Burns can turn things around though. They have got some of the best in-state recruits the last couple of years. This is his chance to "show" us he can make a change in the program and the perception of the program to those of us in the "show me state."

Nope, top 3.

Virtually no PEDs at LSU you toothless razorhack.

Could you of made it anymore obvious that you run for the team at Mizzou??? Listen up Mizzou runner, you can talk your team up as much as you want on these boards. Untill your team actually goes out there and accomplishes all of these great things you say they are capable of doing, no one is gonna buy this exteremly biased opinion. Quite honestly you're just embarrassing the team. Also no way in that pineapple that homes a yellow sponge under the sea will you guys beat Ole Miss.
