You made an effort to go back and edit your post to add this, so I just want to give it the spotlight it deserves. Wouldn’t want people overlooking your stupidity.

So like Arkansas has more depth for points
Arkansas games the system in scholarship use like no other. Early in the SEC days, Kramer policed them and made them play by the same rules as everyone else. For some reason, after Kramer retired, the new SEC Admin has allowed Arkansas to go back to the old ways of awarding scholarships and by doing this is able to game the system by getting far more qualifiers than most teams.
This has always been Arkansas' road to success and they have been marvelous at it.

The tigers have a great chance to win this in spectacular fashion. Let's hope they finish strong.
On another note, NC A&T has some head bussas in the 4x100, 4x400 and 400m. Scary good.

can you explain why/if we have a shot at a title? And if so why did Arkansas win the SEC ship?
The smaller the tournament the more impactful are the good but not great athletes. At nationals, a lot of the athletes who scored for Arkansas won’t even make it through prelims. I’ve seen high school teams win state when they couldn’t beat an average team head to head.

Can you explain how Arkansas manages scholarships for an advantage? Could LSU do the same to pick up long distance points too?

Arkansas waves out of state tuition and fees for track athletes increasing the pool of scholarship money they can distribute. By doing this they can add numbers or depth and give them more bodies to pick up points. By lowering the cost of school, the kids they recruit are out of pocket far less than attending another SEC school.
Look at the number of qualifiers they had at indoors that scored compared to say, Texas A&M. It’s a huge advantage. Roy Kramer shut it down. But it’s back.

Absolutely want YOU to know because I see what a real authority you are in the sport and how you must have scored events like I did as a kid at track meets or compete in distance like I did. I see all the white people at the meets.
This is about Shavers inability to coach. Boo Has saved his sorry arse. Make no mistake.

I’m tired of having Bowerman winners and finalist and not winning. Think back to Dawn and consider how dominant we were then. 11 outdoors in a row and all those indoor titles. It was only LSU and Arky then.

What is relevant about this and why does it matter? Are you suggesting without white people no one would watch track meets?

Please win NCAA championship. This track team needs to be remembered.

If true you wasted a shite ton of time as a kid at meets because it’s obvious you didn’t learn anything about the sport.
But since you’ve spent all this time watching and scoring meets, surely you must have easy answers to these questions that you’re too much of a bitch to answer. Here, I’ll repost them for you:
Give us documented instances of the following people scoring at the national meet:
#67 in the 100
#44 in the 110 hurdles
#60 and #68 in the 200
#95 in the pole vault
#39 and #51 in the javelin
When you fail to do that, try telling us what kids Arkansas women and Texas tech men got through that they weren’t supposed to and won them the championships in 2019.

Keep flaunting your ignorance. It’s fantastic.

Boo has nothing to do with laird, williams, Burrell, Thomas, edwards, williams, Marshall, mason, ofili, etc. Since Shaver’s inability to coach isn’t helping any of those people, why how are they running so fast?

you’re so fricking stupid. How did Duncan and Richardson win the bowerman with shaver’s inability to coach? How many other schools have bowerman winners and finalists without winning a team championship? quote:

What other programs have come anywhere close to 11 in a row since then? Who are the “only” teams now?

So you don’t think he’s under achieved? One legitimate championship since 2004. Out of all of those great teams and great athletes that went to the Olympics one championship since 2004 and that was on the women’s side. He’s been outcoached. Had he not brought boo back the jumps will be shite still.

So Oregon, Texas A&M, and all those other programs have not passed us? Just look around dummy! You’re no different than the person I wanted to hold onto Miles and Maineri.
