great swimmers want to train
with other great swimmers
for a great coach
in a great facility
since shanteau arrived in Austin as an IMer
then in the 200 LCM ***
he dropped from 2:17 to 2:10, giving him a way better chance than trying to edge out phelps and lochte in the IMs
last year spann was 2:14, he made phenominal improvements,
Randy Reese coached him in high school, Bowman coached him at Michigan then Eddie coached him when he transferred to UT
Many top recruits come to Austin to represent UT and be coached by Eddie, they like it and stay after they graduate
Many more TXLA swimmers didn't make the US Olympic Team
Also don't discount UT's womens program
they have some excellent recruits coming in
UT's women's program has been a laggard - but next fall Hersey, Gingrich, and Riefenstahl arrive on campus. They will suddenly improve dramatically.
