Thank you for finally doing a story on Track and Field, there are not a lot of them and it was refreshing to get one!

The BYU Men's track program has an unparalleled tradition of humble, likeable and sucessful teachers. Robison, James, Hirschi & Robinson--these guys are unsung heroes and the athletes that come out of the program are upstanding men. Check out the GPA of the Track or Cross Country team--it is almost always at the top of BYU Mens teams.

Ditto. I would love to see a piece about how some of these great BYU distance runners did in the sport after leaving BYU. I notice Josh Rohatinsky is in the Nike project under Salazar with another budding star, Galen Rupp. A run-down of famous BYU track athletes after college (i.e. Frank Fredrickson, Ed Eyestone, the guy at Weber St. who I'm forgetting at the moment, etc.) would be great.
