He needs an agent to negotiate a modified XC training program. He needs to negotiate terms for indoor T&F season. He needs to negotiate terms for doubles (800m/1500m). It is not in his interest to race too many 800m/1500m doubles.

I bet dad is a black American serviceman. -
Based on looks alone, he doesn't appear half black, but also not fully Asian. I would bet, looks alone, he has 1 English or American grandparent

Black? how in the Trump world did you arrive at that? Obviously more likely a white serviceman. You do know there are many more of those in Japan right? -
I saw a higher 47 as pr.
1:46.59 at 17 and 3 months is awfully impressive, faster than the best American junior class time, I think, of the Oregonian about ten years back who didn't improve in hs. -

The thing is I think he ran 1:46.9 or something last year. -
I just googled and found this website which says father is American

Also he has really impressive PBs -
Looks like he's got daddy's fast genes.

Exciting!

Or he got into the jeans of a fast Japanese lady -
It looks like it’ll be an extremely fast year for the junior men.

American sprint speed genes + Japanese long distance endurance genes = middle distance beast

This board never squanders a good opportunity to be classless.

He will more than likely not start until the fall of 2020 after the Olympics.
He is due to come out to Australia to train in Feb with my group (he came out for a few weeks last year). Extremely talented and speaks fluent English...although he’s a little shy. Great pick by Texas A&M -

Umm agents and college eligibility doesn't go together very well lol. -
This kid should not be on the XC team
