How many guys from other countries does it take to win a National Championship? Good thing they all attended classes on campus the entire year..... :-) Makes everyone feel proud to see the American Record holder on the 4th place podium.

    6 foreigners..... 6 lost scholarships (or fractions) for US swimmers..... Well.... I'm sure they will publicly thank their schools and coaches when they compete for their home countries at international competitions. Talk about throwing money down a drain. What a joke. But to answer your question more directly. I'd much rather take the easy way out and have the top talented foreigner than have to demonstrate real coaching ability. Face it...... it's instant points year after year.
