Nobody will ever compare to Fernandez. No one. Doesn’t matter what they do.
I've posted this before, but it needs to be repeated. In Fernandez's great 1600/3200 double his senior year, the second place finisher in the 1600 was Junior Mac Fleet. Junior Fleet is one month older than Fernandez. Fernandez was just 17 when he ran that 4:00.29/8:34 double without the help of pacers.
Spencer had a fantastic XC season, but I can't rank his season above Ritzenhein's, considering that Ritz finished 3rd in the U20 race at World Cross, whereas Spencer finished 18th (and wasn't top American either).
Looking forward to seeing what Spencer does on the track this year.

I will say, that NxN run by Nico was one of the most impressive races I've ever seen. Crazy how he solo'd that.
He took it out from the gun, and the announcer said he “went Katelyn Tuohy on us”. Sure enough he did
