The best 1500 runners have never contested the mile very often. It is completely obscure on the European circuit. A Kenyan on the street does not have any idea how many meters there are to a mile.

Without the best actually running the even, this ranking means very little. It's like being 5th all-time in the 1000. Great. But not nearly as meaningful as a real event.

3:51.0 is worth about 3:33.7 for Rupp.

The 1500 conversion still puts him top 20 all-time indoors. Not bad for a 10k guy in the middle of the season winning by 50 meters.

On an outdoor track Rupp would FOR SURE go sub 3:30 for a 1500.

1)The the indoor season is still early
2) Outdoor is typically faster then indoor
3) He already ran 3:34 last year off of mostly 5k/10k work
He had to have been doing mile specific training before his 3:50.92 so imagine what he could run while doing a whole season of mile pace work. Thats the only way I believe he could run sub 3:30

Rupp is like Webb and Fernandez, running highly ranked miles that don't mean shit.

I agree. It's excellent!

All I'm saying is that it's eons from the 3:28 that fanboys have been predicting.
