Seems pretty clear who came out the winner here. Really wasn’t close on Saturday.
Ed Eyestone started the war, Dave just finished it.

I think that Dave is a hell of a coach. Stop hating, he is well respected in the coaching community. Why don’t you go hide under a rock. Nobody cares what you think or how you feel. This is America, the Big melting pot. Land of the free and home of the brave🔥🔥🔥🔥

I get it, people don’t love the pipeline but let me bring up one side of the argument I experienced as a mid major coach.
I couldn’t sign any of these kids (broke ass athletic department with a few nickels for scholarship for xc) but I had a lot of international kids emailing me!
Some were really good, some stunk. But they wanted to be here because of twitter/ Instagram/ TikTok.
questions like:
Hey I saw kids in the NCAA do a gear drop video, does your school do that?
If I join your school can I run the XC championships (after the Matt Baxter NAU team all of NZ and Australia wanted to come)
Hey do you fly your athletes to meets?
Can I race Morgan McDonald?
All these international kids want to be here. scholarbook isn’t trolling B level road races begging guys to join.
The demand is there on both sides.

I've heard the "Stillwater is bad for recruiting" argument so much and it just isn't true. Yes it's a turn off for many but they have been able to get top recruits for at least 20 years.
Many European pro leagues limit the number of foreigners they can roster. I think the NCAA should take a similar approach. I think teams should be able to run 2 and roster a third. It’s gotten out of hand. UTEP and Arkansas were all about it back in the day. It was garbage then. It is garbage now.
