As a 20yr old would Mottram have won? Definitely would have won in his next 3 years. Was he ever approached i wonder?

Mottram was too good to come to the states. He ran a 13.1x 5k as a junior.
He ran 13.26 for 5000 aged 20
its remarkable how close Rupp is to Mottram's early 1999 and 2000 progression at about the same age i believe.
Mottram 1340 at age 19, rupp 1335 at 18-19
Mottram 343 at 19, Rupp 401 full mile age 18-19
you only showed us one time from each. wheres the progression?
Rupp will never run 1.45 800m in trainers...
So far Rupp's mullet progression is nowhere near Buster's. Perhaps another failing of the NCAA system?
Mottram, 27:50 for 10,000m as a 23-year old
Rupp, 28:15 for 10,000m as a 19 year old
Yeah youre definitely right. I really only meant they were comparable around 18-19 years old. Rupp will never run as fast as mottram and he will be falling off that progression chart soon by a lot.
