Also freshmen Caleb Rhynard pretty high up there, one spot ahead of McClintock. Lots of seniors in front of those 2 freshmen.

An athletic budget probably in the top 3 of all D1 schools in the country.
As a former Coach at Ohio State I love quotes like this. What a dumb ass. Just assuming things about Ohio State. They do not even have one of the top 3 budgets in the Conference!!! let alone the nation!!! 36 sport spreads all that money way to thin. Hell the Assistant Coach at Michigan makes more than the Head Coach at Ohio State....Fact!!! Quit assuming you know when you do not!!!

Not assuming the track team is allocated a top three budget in the conference but it surprises me the aren't. I have seen the rankings of Division One college athletic budgets and Ohio State over the last decade is year in an year out top 3-5 in the nation. Of course, good point, that doesn't say anything about how much of that budget goes to each sport.
Michigan has a huge Athletic budget and they have been on the bottom of the conference most of the time like Ohio State.
Nonetheless I can't believe their budget for track is half that of Wisconsin or Minnesota, or enough to be a limiting factor. What are we talking? A 100,000 dollar difference?

I know for a fact that TOSU football has (or had until the novelty wore off) altitude tents.....that is a FACT.
TOSU football has more $$$$$$ than God.....another FACT!

You know what he meant. Does correcting people on the internet make you feel good about yourself?
He is helping someone learn, thereby increasing that individual's ability to succeed in life. Use "dominate" instead of "dominant" in a conversation, in an email, on a resume, or within any professional document and the reader will immediately assume that you are a complete moron.
Does objecting to people improving their knowledge and the way that they present themselves to the world make you feel good about yourself?

I agree here; correcting word use/grammar has to be done correctly to inform. There cannot be any hint of being snarky or it loses its much of the opportunity to inform; the original remark was straightforward.

You are in no position to inform. You are on a letsrun internet forum. How do you know it wasn't a typo? It would be nice to give a person the benefit of the doubt.
If it is a typo, then a courteous comment is not exactly a bad thing. If you monitor what you type you will have fewer typos. Also, typos tend to have different 'signatures' then other errors. I am dyslexic, have some issues with a couple of fingers and timing between hands, and have a keyboard that sometimes misses input (wireless effect?) and grew up in the pre-pre internet era.
I also understand that many people are trying to communicate quickly and usually do not re-read things (setting the browser flag potential spelling mistakes can help). I was just seconding the notion that polite corrections of common errors is, in my mind, an acceptable and often useful service. I used to always mix up "then" and "than", for instance, until someone corrected me with a brief comment that allows me to almost always select the right word.

I don't disagree. I was mostly curious about the mindset of those who correct/are corrected. I have my PhD in literary studies and bad grammar bothers me as much as the next person, but I have always felt it wasnt my place to correct people on forums (and if I were to I would be on here all day, as this board is littered with bad writing). Thanks for the civil discussion - I rarely get that here without name calling.
OP, sorry for the thread jack.
Chill it was a mistake. I didn't know you came to Letsrun to help people learn.
