Landon Helms cleared 17'1 yesterday in the pole vault

Highly agreed

I'LL THRD THAT!!

If I missed it I apologize, but I have not seen them promote all the Aggie athletes going to the World Championships. Seems like that would be a good way to stir up some interest with recruits. I wonder about the Sean Brady deal - is this a clue that their is trouble or did he just want to get back to his home grounds?

I've seen them have an 800U graphic with Miller and Athing on my Facebook newsfeed but I haven't checked their page for any others.

Cross Country schedule posted! And I for one am happy to see us get out of our home course more. This year we head to Stillwater and Lehigh. Both meets with great quality schools where we will be pushed early! Along with us hosting Regionals! Can't wait to see our Aggies run miles and miles!

Charokee Young has signed a deal with Puma to become a Puma athlete. Probably means she won't be competing for us next year, but you never know

That means we will lose our top 100, 200, 400, 800, 1500, 5000, 100 hurdles, 400 hurdles, Steeple, Long Jumper, and Triple Jumper…

unless Kaylah Robinson comes back for an extra year which could happen! But we're losing a lot of production and we've yet to use the transfer portal to replace any of it. No sprinters or jumpers have yet to sign with us. Hopefully a few more do or Henry can bring some in during the winter.

We would need some really experienced and good recruits to replace all that we have lost this year.

Her story has all her friends saying she turned pro. If she was American she could have had a NIL deal with Puma and still run with us.

I am happy for her but really wished she would have stayed and developed further. This reminds me of Jeneba Tarmoh turning pro. I hope Charokee has a better pro career and can reach her full potential.

I agree! Would have loved for her to come back one more year! I thought she needed to become a little more consistent especially in big meets. Never captured an individual title. However, right now the 400 isn't very strong globally, so she can make some money competing internationally! I wonder where she would train! Wish there was more NIL out into our program to help athletes stay and earn their degrees before going pro. However it is a selling point for us that you can come her and go pro quickly, whereas other schools (like tu) will wear you down for 5 years…

Robinson's 5th year was this year already.

Arkansas hit it rich in throws from the portal - 2rd place finisher in NCAA discus, 4th place finisher in NCAA shot put, and the 9th place in the discus. We are behind.

Dang did not realize that!! Plus the jumpers they got! They are loading up with potential national scorers

Look at Duke loading up their rosters as well! 18 transfers! https://instagram.com/duketfxc?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Arkansas has position itself to be one the favorites thanks to the transfer portal! Florida did this last year and now Arky. Us on the other hand………..

Let us continue not to believe in NIL and transfer portal. That's just the way of life now.
Either we accept these changes and use them or be left behind.

Nonsense! Athletes would rather we spend the money improving our already great facilities than giving them gas/date money.

That is what a part time job at Brazos Running Co. is for lol

A proud sponsor of TexAgs they'll find the perfect running shoe for you

Any updates on the replacement for Coach Brady?
Anyone knows who is being considered? Is a Clemson coach being considered?
Would one of the volunteer coaches become an assistant coach?

With a couple of top notch multi's people coming this Fall, I would love to see Clemson's Joe Fox working with them!

I don't see a Joe Fox on the Clemson coaching staff. Their jumps/multi coach is Joe Davis and hasn't been a full time assistant long.

Meant Joe Davis

I don't think it's Davis. He's from the East coast, so I see him staying out there. I'd try to hire someone working under Dan Pfaff at ALTIS.

It's probably a former jumper/grad asst of Coach Henry at LSU - it seems like most of his hires have some sort of LSU connection. If he was cleared from the Arkansas ethics probe, Mario Sategna would be an interesting name. Will Williams does have the year of coaching experience required in the job description, but no experience coaching the vertical jumps.

This is from Letsrun forum. Someone hinted that Mario might take over from Coach Brady. This would be very interesting

Any word on A&M jumps/multis?

Mario.

Hey I know someone that mentioned that name.

That would be a solid replacement!! Our multis would be in good hands!

Petros back to college coaching again. He is hired by Illinois. I wonder who is going to transfer to Illinois now. I wonder if he would keep Coach Hon.

Kyprianou Named Director of Illinois Track & Field and Cross Country - University of Illinois Athletics (fightingillini.com)

Cmon Petros steal people away from Florida and Georgia

6988 points for Landon Helms to win another national title at the USATF Jr Olympic Championships! Didn't have his best pole vault day! But looked improved in the high jump, discus, and 1500! Could really see him near or above 7500 next year!
