Even with Christian Taylor’s very unfortunate injury, I have high hopes for this year’s team being one of the strongest of all time.

There’s some studs for sure. It should be a lot of fun.

I wonder if USTAF will figure out they need to find a 4x1 relay team as well?

That miler from Oregon may qualify. It would be unreal if he does.

Noah Lyles will probably be the favorite. Lyles has best 200 time as well. Bedarik has 2nd. There’s a guy from the Bahamas and some Nigerian that’s up there also

US will finally running against clean runners Bolt and the rest of the Jamaican team was dirty

Nuguse and Hocker are both threats to make the team in the 1500

Nguse from Notre Dame right? Hocker being 18 is what makes it remarkable

19 yr old Athing Mu in the women's 800 has the 2nd fastest time in the world running against no competition so far this year. Look forward to seeing her against Ajee Wilson.

Hocker is a threat in any slow paced final with his kick.

I said in another thread it'd be some shite if the 1500 team was Centro, Hocker/Nuguse, Kessler

I think Hocker can hang on a fast pace given his 5K. He ran a 3:50 mile indoors which converts out to a 3:33 1500m. Well faster than anything Centro has run this year.

Does Juvaughn Harrison plan to try out for both the high jump and the long jump? Or focus on only one?

He said in his interview at NCAAs that he was going for both. Wanted to do something that'd never been done before.

Hope the LSU boys get a chance to show out this summer. Will be pulling for them.

Will Claye got medals in 2012 I believe in both the long jump and triple jump but I can’t remember this combo in a long time.

Justin Hunter was great at both in high school before focusing on football.

That’s a funny joke. The runners we’re competing against are still dirty, but it’s not a big deal because we are as well.

Hocker is 20. Are you thinking of Hobbs Kessler?
