never achieve greatness in college? the only recent runners to achieve greatness in college so far is cragg, willis, and a few other foreign/foreign coached athletes. american coaches suck because they try to keep up with the local "jone's" and prep their ncaa athletes to win the ncaa's with a slow ass time. mcdonnell made cragg beleive that he could race fast. willis has the right mind set to just abuse and deficate on any american runner as he climbs to the top spot as the worlds best 1500m caucasion. i applaude him for exploiting the great american resource he has found. the ncaa should be a killer racing scene. instead its on par with the highschool all scholatic meets. US ncaa coaches are too caught up in the bullshit all-american honors their athlete will recieve when he places 12th at nationals with 14:11 time. its all phony and pointless acolades. this is how i break it down-
US ncaa runners: a fox reality tv show
foreign ncaa runners: the real deal need no mass appeal
so back to the top- acheiving greatness in the ncaa is like saying you own ever single track record at you highschool, but you are sure to never mention that you were home schooled.
know what i mean? they just shoot to be home town heros.
