Re: t-and-f: AT college list 200 meters
They are probably leaving it out since it is slower than Gatlin's 19.86.

FAST eligibility generally is thru Sept 1 of [final] collegiate season, extended further if competing for national team at international championship. Gatlin's 19.86 a record for an athlete who still has college eligibility left - in Gatlin's case, only a soph, lots of it.

Re: t-and-f: TF athletes in winter Olympics?
I've been told that Garret Hines, another US bobsledder, was a hurdler at Southern Illinois. And then, of course, there's Gea Johnson (heptathlete) in the women's bobsled. --- Mike Prizy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There's at least one U.S. Winter Olympian with a track and field background. Dan Steele, who has a twin, Darrin, competed at Eastern Ill. University in the mid-1980s, is the breakman on the USA 2 two-man bobsled team. I'm not sure who is who, but one of the Steeles was A-A in the 400-hurdles and the other a decathlete. I think both eventually concentrated on the decathlon, and, obviously, other sports. I think USA 2 was in ninth place heading in to Sunday's final run. = Kelley Halliburton Trade Marketing Manager Human Kinetics Publishers Champaign, IL __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: t-and-f: Olympic Trials/BS (whoops, I mean BCS)
Maybe Oregon as the winner of the Kenyan trials is accurate, but Illinois is more like the winner of the US trials (well, maybe not that bad). The Big Ten may have a great history, but it was certainly not one of the top two conferences this year. --- Mitchell S. Clair, Esq [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I like your analogy, and would like to take it a step further. Oregon is the guy who won the Kenyan trials in 2:10 and Illinois was the 2:12 winner of the ethiopian trials at altitude (being that they are from the 2 best conferences) and LSU is the surprise winner of the always tough Japanese trials. Shouldn't they all be able to run at the games? -Original Message- From: Keenan Robbins [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Monday, December 10, 2001 10:04 AM Subject: t-and-f: Olympic Trials/BS (whoops, I mean BCS) yeah, that's right. I am going to talk about football. It relates to the whole Olympic Trials winner vs. time qualifier argument so it is not totally off topic. Plus, this list is hosted by the University of Oregon and I'm sure they don't care if I bash the BS (I mean BCS) for a while. If a 26 point butt kicking doesn't prove that you are a better team then what does? It is absolutely ridiculous that Nebraska is going to the Rose Bowl when they are not even the best team in their conference. No fancy computer formulas needed, Colorado beat them where it really counts, HEAD TO HEAD COMPETITION. Then Colorado beat Texas. When you think of who is playing the best right now, you have to be under the influence of some sort of illegal chemicals if you do not inlcude Colorado in the top two somewhere. This brings me to my point about the Olympic Trials. Nebraska is the guy who ran 2:09 on some parking lot course in Chicago or Europe or wherever. The Olympic Trials (Big 12 playoffs) roll around and the 2:09 guy gets beat by a few guys who know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, and know when to run (Colorado). What this really shows is who can run (play football) when it is all on the line, be it an Olympic team spot or a berth in the Big 12 Championship game. Sure, this 2:09 guy can run whatever kind of fast times he wants in off years and the cagey competitor may get beat a few times, let's say he might win 10 races and only lose 2 (perhaps because of the 2nd toughest schedule in the country), but when it comes down to it the gamer will win when it counts and the 2:09 guy will make excuses and/or rely on some messed up computer formula. = Kelley Halliburton Trade Marketing Manager Human Kinetics Publishers Champaign, IL __ Do You Yahoo!?
