Alright guys, I know you both need to talk trash once in a while, it's healthy for you young men. But you guys can just call one another, it's local. Or you could just fight it out, I know Brad has a mean left hand, and Goose has a mean, um....... accent?
So really, who are your picks?
Here is another question I can't find the answer to.
What is the current selection process for the World University Games. It used to be the top 2 'university' athletes at US Nationals, but I believe they may have changed it after Diesel and Big C made the team.

I don't know much about it, but from what I have heard, they use the term "university" pretty loosely.

I guess if we really wanted to find out which college was the best, I could find all the resuults from the best vaulters for the past 3-4 years, and find out which school has the best average height, over the past couple years or so, I think five years might do.

Texas Tech

Unread postby vaultman02 » Wed Oct 09, 2002 3:38 am

You guys don't need to count out Texas Tech! Keul had it right. Southwest Texas isn't the vault capital of Texas anymore. Don Hood Jr. is the coach now and Texas Tech has Buster McClain(17'7 1/2"), Bobby Most(17'9), Sage Thames(17'7"), and three guys around 16'6-17'. Most and McClain will both go 18'3"+ this year and i think they could have all six over 17'3". Look out, the Texas Tech vault crew is gonna turn some heads this year!

Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them-a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. - Muhammad Ali

Talent in cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.
