I think its pretty cool to see NAU doin it big with only 1 foreigner and even he is american hs bred. Caleb Hoover also came through big and he wasnt a huge standout in hs. Mcelroy and Shrader were obviously hs studs and its good to see NAU getting studs like that. And what an awesome freshman performance from Nathan Weitz. Looks like Coach Heins is kinda implementing the "Wetmore Factor" at NAU.
your life is now complete... congrats you have reached enlightenment!!
I suspected this as well. He pulled the obvious Europeans and then pulled anyone who wasn't white.[/quote]
you said i pulled obvious Europeans and then everyone who wasn't white??? can you please do some research before you make blatant comments.. this is not even close to the case..
if you don't like the post then quit posting..

Someone else did it so it's ok for me to as well! What an idiotic attitude.
Dennis... WTF!??
wow this thread got stupid real fast. honestly, i wouldnt mind seeing results of everyone who ran at least HS level in the US. not because i am racist or xenophobic, but just to be able to see how american high school runners are progressing thoughout college and how they stack up now vs. before, and what teams are successful with people who werent imported specifically for running fast. for example, in my area, i have to deal with people like rich peters and eric speakman, who were both brought over as 20 year old freshmen running sub-4 in the mile. thats fine, but i like seeing how kids like riley masters stack up against kids that ran high school here, it makes rankings interesting. there is nothing wrong with that.

Yes, that is fine. It is an interesting thing to look at for sure. The way the OP looked at it was idiotic.
why was my way idiotic? please explain.. because you have yet to make your case..

If the OP had done this, it would have been an interesting thread to read.
so you want individual results?

Your definition of foreigner is flawed. I've pointed this out to you a few times but you refuse to acknowledge it.
its not flawed at all... i have presented the definition of foreigners and that is what i have based the results off.. this is something that you your self has refused to acknowledge..
Following are links to the results by page.. its recommended to copy and paste each link.. so you dont get lost...

I acknowledged that your defintion is wrong and have presented the correct one.
on Merriam Webster the definition right next to the one you presented is..
one not native to a place or community
i guess anyone can search and pick for a definition that fits there argument.. but i will always be able to find one that backs up what my results are based off of.. and in fact your definition doesn't dis credit my results but does also agree with what i am saying..
"a person belonging to or owing allegiance to a foreign country"
This just shows that some of the people still owe political allegiance to other countries.. im referring to students here on student visas. your "definition" changes nothing..
I think most people would agree that an American citizen is not a foreigner. Your definition would have us treating Meb, who's lived here most of his life, has American citizenship, competes as an American, and speaks English, as a foreigner.
can we agree that at one time he would be considered foreign?
