How many football players double up by training with the track and field team? I know that Lute Croy is a thrower for the track team, and I believe that a few other players -- like Kevin Garrett last spring, before he was hurt -- trained with the sprinters to improve their speed.

From what I have heard, players at many top programs train with the track teams at their schools. Does anyone know which other players trained with the SMU track team this year, and maybe how they did in meets (if they competed)? I know Coach Cavan and his staff discourage players from missing spring practice, especially with a young team, but I would think we can use improved speed as much any team in the nation. Wouldn't training with a sprinting coach be encouraged?
