There it is...
Seth Clevenger opens up in a 7:54 leading wire to wire. 1 second off the D3 national record. 18 second PR.
Good for him. Haters were rooting against him. He will break all of the D3 records.

Just like Shelby broke American ones?
Has he been found guilty of doping? Be careful of what you post.
Team rule breaker at Iowa state
nothing else proven
maybe he just hazed the freshmen too hard…
Maybe he had a beer on pre meet night. Maybe he broke curfew at a team hotel.
he pr’d by 18 seconds and barely missed the d3 record with rumors of him being of epos right before that, I’m not saying just because he pr’d by a lot means he’s on epos but especially in his situation it doesn’t help his case and I don’t think the reason he got kicked off the Iowa state team was for having a “pre meet beer”

Why would you get kicked off a team that you spent years at for having a beer on pre meet night? Just to transfer to Rowan of all place?
What case are you referring to that his time will impact? Is there a doping investigation ongoing?
He broke team rules. He then quit the team because he was unhappy about being suspended.

So why would he transfer to Rowan? He should be a D1 All-American. 9:40 kids from south jersey go to Rowan. Make it make sense!
Ok Seth
More news coming out of Glassboro! Former Clemson top 800 runner Blaik Slavinski (1:47, 47.6 in HS, 2:20 1k) has also transferred to Rowan.

not remotely a flex. like a Major League Baseball player getting caught juicing so joins some semipro team in Mexican and breaks a bunch of records. he's gotta be embarrassed running against guys who couldn't make the Iowa State running club team.

He was unhappy about being held accountable?
Has anyone asked him what rule/s he broke?
He wasn't even top 7 on his team. And several of his faster teammates weren't close to AA. You guys really overestimate this guy. I realize that he has become a hero to many of you who somehow think he can run 7:40/13:25, but it won't happen.
Did you ever get a ticket going 74 in a 70 zone? Were you happy being held accountable?
After an all American level run at Nuttycomb, not a single D1 coach offered Seth a scholarship? Those D1 coaches must really have a non tolerance policy for pre meet beers.
He wasn't top 7 on his team. I realize some.of you are completely in awe of him but you need to come back to reality. Some.of his teammate who were better than him didn't finish top 100. Of course he got scholarship offers. Did you want him to go to a crappy Power 4 where he would be 2nd man on a team that finishes 10th at the conference meet? And who cares about $20k in the big scheme?
