Thanks, the punch didn't hurt, they never do on the net, but you WERE wrong,...Jingo. When the HOGS were winning the three triple-crowns championships in a row, they did have balanced teams, as is evident by the fact that they won SEC, the toughest conference in the country. They also were bringing 14-16 guys to the national meet, with the majority being AMERICAN. And, recover, and upper cut, and Jingo is down, down goes Jingo, Jingo is OUT!
Already said I didn?t need all the Americans listed. Never have seen anybody Volunteer for moronhood, though.
Actually, I?ve never heard of any of those guys listed. Bet their PRs are all made up and can?t even be verified.
Now you are just being silly. Silly you! I am man enough to admit my moronhood. Hello I am What the??? and I am a moron...
ok american jingo,
you criticize people who bring hefty, tenable specific refutation against your claim, and give (tongue-in-cheek) praise to those who "prove" with "logic"
last I checked, scholasticism went out in favor of empiricism, oh, about the time of galileo.
what school was it you say you attended?
The success the Hogs have had indoors should also be noted. They've had a few NCAA Champs (whereas Oregon has probably had none). I can think of Rock, Bruton, Hood, several DMR and 4X800 teams, Cragg, Wilson, Godfrey, Bunston, Reina, etc. Not to mention millions of big scorers, i.e. 2nd/3rd (Henry, Power, Lassiter, Kerr, Lincoln, Link, Travis, Kaley, etc.).
The Hogs have DOMINATED for the last 20 years, without question. I think the times they've produced consistently with their middle distance runners is unparalleled. McDonnell has coached like 40-50 (maybe more) guys that have run 3:43/4:02. He has also developed some great Americans (Baker from 9:08 high school to 13:22; Wilson 4:13 HS miler to 3:41/7:41/13:19; Price from 4:14 miler to 3:40.0; Lassiter from 4:07y to 3:33; the list goes on and on).
No argument here, I was there.
Sorry --
The Razorback era (first NCAA Championship) starts in '84, not quite 20 years ago (if you don't count Clyde Hart).
Brandon Rock's championship is in the outdoor arena (while at Arkansas).
Can a non-american athlete be an all-american?
You've "never heard of any of those guys"? Not much of a track fan are you.
Don't forget Michael Morin. Thought the kid looked good enough in '88 to make the team.
oops- he's already on there, isn't he.
nouveau riche...more appropriate for the
Razorback that made it to the White House.
"the modern scholarship restricted era, that's 80's and 90's"
At Arkansas? Please, don't fool yourself.
Like I said, I was there. That program is watched and scrutinized more than any out there. It's funny how when a team is winning, it must be cheating/giving away more than the limit of 12.6 scholarships. Tell that to the 4:10-9:15 kids that were walking-on during that era. Of course no one has a problem with what is going on out at Stanford, but the HOGS must be cheating.
Clinton is not now, never has been, a Razorback. He went to Georgetown, Oxford, and Yale. I don't think anyone from any of those schools would know the difference between a pig, a shoat, or a Razorback hog.
And the folks from the University of Dogpatch continue to step into punch after punch.
"Refutation?" "Empiricism?" "Scholasticism?" Don't you need a permit to carry around words like that in Arkansas?
And I thought the only was to get a rise out of these crackers was for them to see their cousin naked...
Alright, now you've gone and done it..."crackers" are from Georgia (much lower on the ol' cultural sensitivity ladder than those of us born on the banks of the Arkansas River).
And, furthermore, having seem my cousin naked...boy, are you going down the wrong forque with that one. I could send you some pictures of him (plain brown envelope, third class postage paid, negatives available) and you would understand.
Dogpatch is on highway 7, Fayetteville is on 71, easy to understand the error there.
Yes, I take Arkansas seriously as should everyone. Yes, they do get "imports" coming in. Are you going to turn down an "import" that can help you win the National Championship? I sure as hell wouldn't. The international athletes come to Arkansas for a reason. That is to be coached by John McDonnell. I highly doubt you would turn down a sub 4 miler.
And it UTEP you jackass
Your ignorance of Ted Banks' charges just shows that you're not quite prepared to discuss this topic.
Click below and educate yourself.
I know where Clinton matriculated.
I was thinking along the same lines as when
people say "...you're a Hoosier..." because you're from Indiana. Please excuse my loose rhetoric.
