Will a 28:44 be competitive at NCAAs, let alone at the global level?
Also, the college I attended, despite also being D1, doesn't give out any athletic money at all so your comment about "4-year ride" doesn't affect me.

question meh, when did you run your 28:44 equivalent?
I ran it in more modern spikes but before superspikes were released. I also ran it in a heat of a race where I could settle in quickly.
A 28:44 is still a good time, but it's not like a 27:44, let alone a 26:44.

I'm going to out on a limb here and say that literally all D1 NCAA All-Americans in cross-country are "good runners."
This is hilarious. Dude was sub-29 10K, all-American at Notre Dame, VP at Microsoft, now CEO of big legal data company with kid an NCAA champ. All he's missing is the super-model wife (which, maybe) to be living the "meh-" Letsrun dream. So, yeah, I guess his life is OK. Not great, but OK.
He’s not a billionaire and dating Kate Upton so he’s a loser. At least that’s what the common LRC belief is
