I would put him as the slight favorite. He hasn’t lost this year. 4-0. I think the only real contender that he hasn’t faced and beaten is the Kenyan from Oklahoma State.
After Stanford never having a xc individual champion in history until Charles Hicks last year, they are going to have their second consecutive in Ky Robinson.

Ky is very good but he's not a 10k XC runner, I think his weaknesses will show a bit more on a rough/hilly course
I’m buckling up my helmet when Blanks walks out of Winthrop House, wearing Harvard Cross Country gear head to toe. He tells me we’ll be “jogging” today, at a 7:21-minutes-per-mile pace. The average non-elite male runner races...

Finished 23rd at World XC on a tough course in Australia. Seems plenty good at 10K XC running
What's exciting on the men's side is that there are probably five or six runners vying FTW. On the women's side I don't see anyone busting up the Valby- Tuohy duel.
I think him, Habtom Samuel, Nico Young, and the two OSU guys all have around equal shots of winning. It's a very competitive year for sure.
IMO i haven't seen anything from young this year that makes me think this is the year he finally wins an NCAA title. Everyone else mentioned has a better chance.
