Dull...boring...The Grote Poll is done, be patient and check letsrun.com and
hopefully those wiseguy Ivy Leaguers will post it. For what its worth,
Arkansas #3 is a total slap in the face. I don't care who they lost and who
they return. If Oliver Miller is in their top 5, I don't care, they have
won 3 straight. They'll find a way to compete for the win. At least start
them at #1 until they get knocked off. They have some decent guys back in
Lincoln and Travis. Look at their roster, some dude from Eldoret, Kenyan
named SILVERUS KIMELI, he might not suck.
