Randy Melancon in the early 1970s laid the foundation on which the entire Arkansas program was built!
I think his kid runs for Oregon now.

I was a fan at Okla City when Joe did that amazing double - when I got home and watched to recording on TV; the announcer (I believe it was Liquori), criticized Joe for doing that with the fist, etc. but I think that he kind of missed to boat on the emotion of clinching the team competition. It was memorable!!!
Piss Off Mate. You went to San Angelo State
Throwing a vote in for Niall Bruton. Killer indoor miler.
If we're including sprinters I'd say Tyson Gay. World champion at 100m and 200m (and 4x100m?), many time USA champion, #2 all time at 100m, and somewhere around there at 200m also. Also a class act.

Plus Mike Conley Sr, was one of the few people who could dunk BEHIND the foul line. (Eat your heart out, MJ) Too lazy to pull up the youtube video.

Please name your favourite runner of all time who attend the arkansas razorbacks!
I was thinking of this on my own and the realized there was w thread on it. If John M. was alive today, who do you think his top ten pure talented guys would be (I'm talking raw talent and not accomplishments?) He coached there a long time, so he saw some amazing guys.
Can anyone else who actually went through the program explain what the workouts were like?
I heard a lot of stories, but always wondered if they were true. I remember seeing them at meets during the programs prime and those guys were like GODS to me.
