I think this would be a nice fit for all the little Ducky's. Vin provides the administration and head recruiting dutys assisted by Tyson.They will grab top, top talent from around the country, rarely loose an in state kid.
Vin brings back the big meets to Oregon. This is something he did at Stanford.Look at the Cardinal Invite. World class Kenyans running the fastest 10k on American soil.Meb breaking the American record. That meet is where all the top U.S runners come and shine.He was instramental in making the U.S. Open Oracle meet a world class event. A distance oriented meet is what U of O needs and he's the man that can get it done.
They"ve got the blessing of Alberto and Knight (Nike).Theyve got the money to pour into the program and have the money to bring the big meets to Eugene.
Alberto will bring Galen Rupp who will be a huge force come NCAA's creating excitement for every H.S. kid. Oregon will be a school every distance talent in the country will consider.Tyson can flat out coach.
Who's their west coast competition in distances? Only Stanford and we have already seen the decline of the programs recruiting since Vin left.
You need several things to succeed and Oregon would have most of them covered.
