Certainly a chance to be wrong finally. Best of luck to Nico.

True
Honestly expected him to be more in the mix today. He was better as a true freshman.

Well, he has a shot to get his first championship during track this spring - just kidding, Mike Smith can't coach NCAA track, just like Wetmore.
Trash be gone. Litter another thread.
Always chokes.
I think you're correct. I assume he won't be coming back for a 5th year and might not want to peak at NCAA outdoors this year for the trials; he wouldn't be a favorite anyway. So that pretty much leaves indoor. Obviously not winning the mile (or even running a qualifying time), so that leaves the 3k and 5k. I think the 3k is too short and there's too much talent - he won't be able to run away from the field as Bosley et al are faster (and also have better kicks) nor will he be able to outkick off a slow pace. I'd say the 5k is similar - Robinson is faster and has a stronger kick: can you see him closing in a 54 for the last 400 of a tactical race? if he'd lead the way, he wouldn't be able to run away so he'd end up serving as the rabbit.
I think the only possible way would to be to get lucky - maybe in a tactical race, where he's leading and nobody wants to start the kick, and then there's some bumping so he can run fast enough for the final 300 and win?

Great run by Nico today! Will this be the season he gets his first individual NCAA title?
He looked far steonger
Isn't he hurt now? So even if he'd return he wouldn't be at ncaa in peak shape ...
As he's not running big sky indoor.
What? I just watched him run the 800 yesterday. Today he is entered in 800 finals, mile and 3k. What big sky indoor are you watching?
He has to be a decent favorite with banks out. He seems to be running a bit better than XC. Now if he can win a championship race with a fast last 400/800 is hard to say. You think he could crush everyone with a fast last kilo but sometimes it just doesn’t work out…

I don't see his name: see:
Turn on the mile right now and see how injured he is
This is the link I'm using to keep track of the Big Sky champs. Nico won the mile and is listed in the 800 final and 3000 later this afternoon.
I think you need a subscription of some sort to watch the meet on this ESPN streaming platform, but it's playing here:
