Maybe -- hard to say. I've heard the same thing, through some alums who donate enough to get closer to connected people than I do, but I have heard no confirmation.
Well the new Director of Marketing ran track at SMU circa 1977-1981-I'm sure you have willing listener there. I'd like to see track return. There is a small but significant group of kids that this will matter to in recruiting football players. Of course, I hope it doesn't hurt our Rowing, Equestrian, Cow Tipping, Bullfighting and/or Bird Watching teams that Copeland brought us.

Not only do I appreciate it, but Bird Watching is big here in Arkansas with the return of the Ivory Billed Woodpecker from believed extinction. We could get a team together and have a built in rivalry with and SEC team. I bet our RPI would soar (pardon the pun).
Pony Pride-check the third post of this thread for more track times-finished 2nd in 4A in the 200 Meters. The best time I had found in the 100 Meters was 10.61 so 10.54 is even better. I also found 21.44 in the 200 Meters. He's a little small but he's what your looking for at Inside Receiver. I'm surprised he didn't get more play just based on his speed alone.
