True/False - Only 3 American men have a shot at top 10 at 2024 NCAA XCs - Blanks, Wolfe and Clinger

Try 2 in the top 3. Rojo goes home devastated.

Per usual

You misspelled North Carolina.

You misread women

Foreigners really choked today

1-Kipchoge DNF. what happened to him?

2-Samuels lost a shoe

3-I saw another one or two falling. Who were they?

…

In the Women: Top 3 Kenyans then an Australian. Next 6 were 2 from New Zealand, 2 from Canada and 2 from USA.

Joash Ruto - Iowa State
Fouad Messaoudi - OK State

The guy that gets the benefit of coaching 27 year olds?

Same in 1981. Nothing new

On the men's side, maybe the East Africans couldn't handle the cold.

He was relaying what the coaches association said. He didn’t say he agreed.

if he disagreed he would have said so, he usually does. by simply posting and writing "that's what they say" he wants to spread the same bs conservative talking point about " foreigner taking over". it isn't a consideration coming from him given how wrong he often is

Can anyone explain to me why people from NZ, Canada, Kenya, etc. are awarded ALL - AMERICAN status??? How can someone be ALL-AMERICAN when they aren't even a tiny bit American?

Canadians are North American

When I was running the top 25 Americans were AA. Some years it went to the mid-forties.

Feels like an arbitrary and pretty pointless distinction to begin with

Ok, without the fall, the shoe and the Kipchoge “issue”,

Samuel would have won and there would have been 4 Americans in the top 10, but only 2 in the top 8.

Other Africans had bad races too.

We will see next year

Thank you. I was so busy I didn't have time to think about it really.

It seemed a) low without having done the research and b) provocative and perfect for a discussion thread. So I started this thread.
