    Anyone conjecture that maybe Thompson (Oregon) took Andrews out fast and maybe him run a fast time on purpose? Maybe take a little out of him before the final?

    Looks like rather Oregon was hoping/planning Greer would qualify by place or more likely time. After the fast first heat,Greer finished third in the second heat- but did not qualify on time. Lananna was not pleased.

    According to Ken Goe of the Oregonian..

    “I don’t want to talk about the first heat,” Lananna said. “Why our guy rabbited the first heat is beyond me.”

    Wow, I hadn't even had thought of that. That's very true.

    Maybe his first heat guy thought that was the best way for him to qualify for the final.

    Does he want the guy to lay down and not try to advance?

    I'm sure Vin did, and while Thompson is not a kicker, he is also not a rabbit. His best strategy would have been to go hard from 400-500 out, not 800 out.

    And not knowing the guy, he looks like a hard head. A coaches nightmare.

    Because coaches don't want their own athletes to do that?

    I'll take Vins strategy at getting athletes qualified over TT's. Travis had a chance with a 400-500 drive, not an 800 drive.

    what a lot of people don't know...

    the 800s and 4x400s were posted then reseeded to fit international rules instead of the regular USATF seeding rules. Curious that the new seedings placed Wheating in a fairly easy heat and Thompson in Andrews heat...

  • Not a fan... A realist.

    EASY guys i never said robby did anything wrong i just said wheating was smart considering he has a double, talk about bandwagons..

    "wheaters" you are a double talking douche. Andrews is going to beat buck wheat like a red headed step child. wheating = Andrews' lil bitch.
