I'd guess 100%. Chances he runs it even once? I'd guess slim to none. Oh well...

Well he has run it before, he ran 8:26 when he was 16 so he clearly has good natural ability to get over the barriers. Almost a certainty he could break 8 if he set his mind to it.
I mean, he ran 7:26 as a 19 year old, and has excellent strength.
Is it really that hard to master jumping over the barriers?
Better question is whether he could be the 2nd person in history after Daniel Komen to do this in the 2 mile

That is an insane time for 16 years old. That actually may be his best even if he chose to pursue it.
