Agree with all of this, especially WashU. They're consistently contending for the podium but have never won a national championship. Very overrated. Time to move on and let the underdogs play for once.
Consistency is trash

The weird thing about UAA is how the teams are constructed - they're very clearly constructed to win dual meets and conference championships, not Nats. Both WashU and CMU have pretty ridiculous depth, but really no one who is a threat to score big points at NCAA.
Part of that is structural, of course: much higher admission standards than the gutter trash that attend UW-Lax or NCC means it's harder to get elite talent in the door.

Most Overrated D3 XC/TF Programs??
In my opinion, in no particular order :
Haverford, MIT, Pomona Pitzer, All of NESCAC, SUNY Geneseo, RPI, Most of UAA.
calvin college, johns hopkins (celebrating a "podium" finish with unofficial results?), RIT (imagine dying your hair for nationals and then DFL), christopher newport, all of the south (shouldn't even get one auto-bid)

Amherst, solely because Ricciardelli tried to get the crowd going too early in the indoor 5 and proceeded to get dusted. Any team that does that nonsense is overrated.

Hey man... to be fair he only got dusted by 14:51 5k runner Druvil Patel

Where are you seeing 14:51? I'm only seeing 15:31.
I can’t believe Patel only ran 14:51 after running 14:00 indoor. Ricciardeli is running slower than indoor but not by that much...
We really ran out of good trolls on this thread. Someone bring back Tufts Dad, this is lame.

Here's a joke for you!
Drew Padgett walked into Panera Bread.
He later died.
Maybe D1 should divide into a new Super D1 and D1A. D2 should just go away and we could rebrand D3 as JV.

This is the kind of content I am here for. Somebody talk about Lamere pooping himself again.

He's the white, cauliflower-crust pizza eating version of Dhruvil "17:30" Patel.
Who is Ian lamer? I just accept an offer at a great d3 school, Claremont mens college, and want to catch up on d3 gossip so I can to joke around with my teammates when we all go to lake tahoe
You heard it here first! Patel's 14:51 knocks North Central out of the top 5 ustfccca ranking!

Lamere is the last true blue collar DIII superstar. Now we just have pat on the back factories where 14:51 is celebrated as the second coming.

guys, lets not be too harsh. 14:51 is pretty good compared to his performance at nationals last year. give him a few weeks and maybe he can break 14:47 this time.
Hey guys, been a while since I posted here. My 4:06 miler son, Jamie, who ran the mile in 4:06, graduated from college a couple years ago, so I haven't really had a lot of reason to hang around. Can't believe the division leader in the 1500 is only a 3:48! That barely converts to a 4:06 mile, which is about as good as my son could run, as he also ran 4:06, which is 61.5 seconds per quarter mile.
This Dhruvil kid seems good. 14:51 isn't anything to sniffle at. It isn't a 4:06 mile, if you understand my meaning, but I'm sure he would give my son Jamie a run for his money over any distance longer than the mile, at which point the advantage would probably be to my 4:06 miler son.

3:48 seems slow? My son Greg Morgan ran 4:05.01 in the full mile. How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
