Rumor has it that Haile was seen hanging out with German Fernandez, Colby Lowe, and the Ok. St coach Dave Smith in Washington DC. They went sight seeing around the capital including the white house, capitol building and the washington monument. Pictures on his facebook profile confirm the rumors as they show Fernandez and Haile playfully posing in front of the monuments. They seem to be having a good time. So is it just a matter of time before the announcement is made?
It was reported that Haile's final choices were Iona, Northern Arizona, Oklahoma St., and Texas. It looks like Oklahoma St. is the lucky one who will land him.
With Haile on board it looks like Oklahoma st. will be the favorite over Oregon to win NCAA XC next year. a line up of German Fernandez, Solomon Haile, John Kosgei, Colby Lowe, and David Chirchir will be too much for any team to overcome. Any thoughts?
Haile to Oklahoma St.???

At first I thought this was some sort of trolling attempt including Geb.

Link?
I wouldn't call them a favorite for this fall.
After last season's 8th place, the rankings will be tough on them. -
Until Haile breaks 14, I wouldn't count on him helping you win nationals. I don't know whos back for O next year but didn't they have like 5 guys sub 14 at washington+ rupp+wheating+Centro? Obviously they are all not back but that is a pretty deep talent pool

One flaw with your claim... Colby Lowe was not at the US XC Championships. He stayed in Stillwater, OK with the flu.
Stop with the stupid rumors already. -
Has Colby Lowe done anything lately?

I think Geb would have a "slight" problem with all of his professional earnings. If you thought the Rupp case was bizarre.... -
tis true iv jus been on his facebook page...
-
Haile has 365 facebook friends and German has 1400!!

By the way is Dave Smith allowed to take German around DC or is that considered excess compensation?/
-
Dude that's not Colby. Ryan maybe?

As long as he is not providing extras other than the necessities and as long as it has to do with track. I'm sure German and the rest of the guys on the team get a good size food allowance and a decent hotel. -
Its Ryan P.. You morons.. and look at Haile, he looks photo shoped in. I don't think this is true. He could end up there, but it looks fake

Can you say "Photoshop"?

Ummm...isn't Solomon Haile getting just a little too old to be going to college. He needs to act his age and put down the beer bong.
-
Soloman is not that good. I would not be surprised to see him lose tomorrow. He barely won during possibly the weakest year of FLN ever as a 21 year old. I could be eating my words later this year, but I don\'t see him even making top 7 on O.S.U\'s squad.

Its called visiting an athlete in his home town, nothing new....Smith and company were in washington for USA XC, so clearly they are going to make a house call to their biggest recruit.
