The average 5k time for D1 males is around 15:10 with weekly mileage usually around 80, right? If they were only to run 40mpw, how much slower would the typical times become? 15:30? 16:00?

faster than 16. probably 15:40s or so, but you'd still have plenty of guys running 14:10
I ran around 15 flat in college off 70-80 per week, and recently ran in the 15:30's off around 40-45. I wasn't D1 though, so maybe it doesn't count.
I ran 15:01 off 35 mpw average. Maybe I'm not average.
