[When did Tommy start throwing his head back? I've been taking pictures of him since he was a HS Junior, and he never used to do that :eek:


In the videos Ive seen him do it several times, but like someone posted about Don Hoods saying with a good run and plant it doesnt matter a whole lot what you do in the air. He has an awesome run and takeoff, and he shouldnt worry about not looking perfect since hes jumping 18'6 consistently. But if he wants to jump 20 one day he will have to fix it.

SIU is going to a combined program next year and the girls coaches get to stay and the boys coaches got let go. I think the mascot is a Saluki whatever that is. The vaulter is a tough son of a gun no matter what you call him. Ball State droped its men's program but thier vaulter was a senior I think.

Everyone from Indiana is called a Hoosier (not just people who go to IU). Its a nickname we are all kinda proud of..........Ash is a Boilermaker (Purdue) and I am a Sycamore (indiana State) Ray is/was a Saluki (S. Illinois) but we are all hoosiers. Got it.................... :D

In parts of Missouri, a Hoosier is a derrogatory term that falls somewhere between white trash and redneck :P

I'd like to see that post. I've been working Don Hood's Camps for the past three years, I NEVER have I heard him say that If you do things right on the ground, "it doesnt matter a whole lot what you do in the air."
