Great choice. The dynasty will continue for BYU women.
Hutchins has raced against BYU signee Carmen Alder of NC a lot. They are probably friendly. In Hutchins' recent 9:52 3200 Alder was second in 10:07. Alder also ran in the 5000 where Hutchins set the U20 record.
BYU has also signed Analee Weaver of Minnesota. Both Weaver and Alder are in the top 10 seniors according to Tullyrunners speed ratings.
Their recruiting has definitely picked up.
Best coach in the NCAA. Imagine what they are capable of with elite recruits? They have been elite with less than the best recruiting classes.
Surprising choice but also a really good one.

I would not describe this as "draconian."
Dress and Grooming Standards
The dress and grooming of both men and women should always be modest, neat, and clean, consistent with the dignity adherent to representing The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and any of its institutions of higher education.
Modesty and cleanliness are important values that reflect personal dignity and integrity, through which students, staff, and faculty represent the principles and standards of the Church. Members of the BYU community commit themselves to observe the following standards, which reflect the direction of the Board of Trustees and the Church publication For the Strength of Youth. The Dress and Grooming Standards are as follows:
Men
A clean and well-cared-for appearance should be maintained. Clothing is inappropriate when it is sleeveless, revealing, or form fitting. Shorts must be knee-length or longer. Hairstyles should be clean and neat, avoiding extreme styles or colors, and trimmed above the collar, leaving the ear uncovered. Sideburns should not extend below the earlobe or onto the cheek. If worn, moustaches should be neatly trimmed and may not extend beyond or below the corners of the mouth. Men are expected to be clean-shaven; beards are not acceptable. Earrings and other body piercing are not acceptable. Shoes should be worn in all public campus areas.
Women
A clean and well-cared-for appearance should be maintained. Clothing is inappropriate when it is sleeveless, strapless, backless, or revealing; has slits above the knee; or is form fitting. Dresses, skirts, and shorts must be knee-length or longer. Hairstyles should be clean and neat, avoiding extremes in styles or colors. Excessive ear piercing (more than one per ear) and all other body piercing are not acceptable. Shoes should be worn in all public campus areas.
Wow, sounds similar to those draconian dress codes at those federal government run schools in Colorado, Connecticut, New York, and Maryland. What's the difference between having high standards/expectations and being draconian?
How far back does the "all-time" roster go? It certainly doesn't look like it goes back to the early 70's.

That statement is LAUGHABLE. There are several dozen coaches in the NCAA that would have won by a bigger margin if they were at BYU.
Their high school recruits on paper don't have insane times, but all of their times are run at altitude. They are also undertrained. Your average 10:00 girl in the 3200 is running 70 miles per week in high school.
Then look at Whittni Orton who ran 11:00 at altitude in high school....but was also the state basketball MVP and was also all-state in volleyball for two years. So her 11:00 was with a few months of training per year. Don't tell me someone like Orton isn't an ELITE recruit.
Then factor in that BYU is the perfect culture for running because there is no partying, it's at altitude, and they have very strict behavioral rules. Most get married while in college.
Marriage is just taking the easy way out to circumvent that pre marital sex ban, I bet an NCAA investigation is pending.
Given that BYU has great success with undertrained athletes, bringing in a top recruit could be the start of the decline, as we all know here on LRC that hs phenoms have already peaked and never pan out in college.
Looks like the experts believe it also. But somehow to an armchair warrior, it laughable that the coach of the year is the best coach?
Stanford and Notre Dame were the other two in the running.

Really? So those schools require dresses, skirts and shorts to all be knee-length or longer? These schools don't allow more than 1 ear piercing? Not even a simple double pierce, which is extremely common? No, these are not normal dress codes, especially not for college. Unless you are Mormon BYU will be a very restrictive environment. To say otherwise makes it clear you don't know much about BYU.

I am just wondering. Take away running, and is this a school she would even consider?
Controlling people to a high degree is Draconian. If you control a person's dress more than is reasonable then yes is Draconian
Saying you have to wear sleeves or you have to only have modest ear piercing is Draconian. Same thing with saying someone can't be barefoot on grass
Why can't you be sleeveless what is offensive about the bicep? Why can't you pierce your ears the way you want to? Do you really want some sort of Big Brother type scenario telling you how you have to behave Beyond reasonable societal measures?
Kind of weird that you don't see that this is obviously draconian.
