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.
Lazy / Low Risk recruiting. That's what it comes down to. Grab your prepackaged top level international talent and sign here.
I suppose UT goes out of its way to grab the "unpackaged" lower level talent here in the U.S.? What's the difference between grabbing the "prepackaged top level talent" here in the U.S. and doing the same internationally--what makes one "lazy" and immoral?
I get the point that you're pissed Texas lost. I get it that you think the U.S. should exclusively benefit from any good performance by a swimmer training here. I understand that you want more spots for U.S. men on top level college teams. What I DO NOT understand is where you come off calling the legal (and logically very strategic) practice of international recruiting by college coaches lazy or immoral. You don't like it. Fine. That doesn't make the practice inherently wrong. Make the practice against the rules and THEN you can claim someone is cheating. Until then, your arguments are very weak.
