Brian Cunningham of Troy. Like WTF is going on over there.

UTRGV Distance
looking at results compared to the rest of the team, the Iowa distance program is pretty abysmal. Their conference results on the mens and womens side are almost always some of the worst in their events. Might be one of the few schools in the big ten that get absolutely dominated by their peers
This is objectively incorrect. They have had the most successful track program in the B10 over the past 7 or 8 years. They put up 16 points in 5k / 10k at outdoor B10 last season and had a guy at nationals in XC.
Santos
This is the bizzaro world of Letsrun. Someone with Santos accomplishments is considered the worst coach in D1, yet someone with Brosnan’s lack of accomplishments is considered one of the best is the US.

I think it would be important to look at individual athlete progression.
If you try to evaluate overall program performance, you’d have to take into account a number of variables. Like: number of scholarships allotted for distance/XC, the additional ways to attract recruits (low tuition, low academic standards + academic scholarships), altitude, snow, indoor facilities, heat, humidity, travel demands, urban campus, etc.
Easily the highest paid, worst coach in the NCAA. If only you all could see how bizarre her training methods are... truly terrible.
How can this thread live but when we want to rank female hotness it gets deleted?!
Berryhill is terrible yes. Dahlberg very solid.
Looks we got a winner!
UNC distance coach - if that’s Jess Riden or Chris Miltenberg idk but they have run those women into the ground.
• ranked 5th starting off XC season to DNQ
• had 4 women TOTAL compete 800 and up indoor
• outdoors looks like much of the same… only 2 women have raced for them. 2:13 and 4:30. Those aren’t even UNC walk on standards
where are the national champs? Where is Sydney? Where is Ciara? Where is Maylenne? Where is Brynn? Where is Sasha? I mean the list goes ON AND ON
Miltenburg needs to hire a new women’s coach and get it done
Ricardo Santos is up there. But in his defense he has to work with JJ Clark and that can only be a bad thing
University of Oklahoma coach
Omg yes
He doesn't know shxt about distance. He's a fxcking jumps coach.
