High School buddy of mine got a free ride on a 4:43 mile 25 years ago. Has high school times got that much better in the past 25 years?

Your "times" don't mak sense. They are inconsistent
In what sense? They are within a reasonable range on the IAAF points tables. I'd expect a guy who could run one of those times to be capable of all the others depending on what his training was focused on at the time.

In my 20's I was running 2 miles in a little over 13 minutes.

Never tried to run a timed mile.
23 minutes for 5k, age 40 something. Never ran a 5 k til 40's.
52 minutes for 10 k age 40 something. Only run a couple of these.
The above times are certified as fact.

A 4:43 is not in the top 350 high school seniors in the country this year. It would get precisely $0 dollars.

No. 4:43 would have been slow 25 years ago.....where did he go to college? Even a 4:15 guy 25 yrs ago would have only gotten 1/4 scholly.....there are very few track guys that get full rides.

It was a college in Arkansas. All I remember is it wasn't the Razorbacks.

Yeah, US HS running wasn't deep then, but 4:43 has never been worthy of a full ride. I'm guessing the guy may have received books on a crappy team and misled his buddies into thinking he was a full-ride recruit.

The fastest 1600 meter person last year according g to max preps finished in 5:02 so someone running a sub 5 wouldn't be receiving a scholarship?

Maybe so, never really saw the guy after high school, last I heard he lived in Tennessee.

Lol wut? Two high school runners ran under 4:00 for a mile last year (hint: a mile is longer than 1600 meters). Someone running under 5:00 would be lucky to be varsity for any decent team.

My best mile time was 5:02 when I was 17 years old.
It only got me third place.
