What should the NCAA & USS do about cuts with the new suit rules?
Swimmers aren't likely to swim as fast.
Anyone have any opinions?
2008/2009 NCAA Cuts
USS SCY National Cuts Dec 2009
LCM Summer National Cuts Aug 2010
I think USA Swimming should just keep the same cuts rather than revise them this year. Yes, fewer people will probably make things like Nationals cuts, but I think they should see how things pan out then they can make changes next year. I think the problem in the last couple years has been too many people qualifying.
For the NCAA, maybe keep the A cuts as is, but make the B cuts a little slower. Maybe baseline them at 2004 or something.
