I used to think the same thing, simply because i'd heard it from enough sources (mainly here and ppl who knew him only casually).....and then i got to know him pretty well. funny, turns out he's a good kid, friendly, respectful, and not full of himself at all. obviously there are plenty of milers in the US "better" than him, but he has plenty of claim to be a bit arrogant, what with a 3:53 pb....but he's not, and i was pleasantly surprised when i found him to actually be quite humble. kid doesn't even get stupid drunk, which is more than you can say for many young kids on the circuit, something i find very respectable.
tough event to try and make his mark, but he has the tools to do well, wish him the best.
dude-
+1 on this. similar experience.
