An article in today’s New York Times (sidebar: where Ladies BFFs and all around awesome dudes Enrico and Matt P of The 700 Level are holding down the fort this week at the Fifth Down blog) talks about the recruiting challenges faced by nonrevenue athletes and coaches.
It’s an enlightening read; the glamour sports, basketball and football, have changed the college sports recruiting landscape and now even nonrevenue athletes are approaching the process as aggressively a linebacker or a power forward would.
And now for something completely different: Hot shotputters.
NOM NOM NOM!
Um, I live 15 minutes from UDel. I think I need to start going to track and field events. You know, to see how UDel’s spending their scholarshop money.
Ladies... 
Hot Shotputters? Now there’s something you don’t see everyday.
My personal best was 35’5″ with a 8 kilo shot…not that I know anything about shotput…ugh…
Unfortunately this is not good enough for college. I was too small to be really good.
Oh and that’s an indoor shot he has. Outdoor ones tend to be metal.
Shit…one more thing..I meant 4 kilo!!!!!
Your tax money is help funding the university. I say that’s enough reason to see what they’re doing with it.
Go Fightin’ Blue Hens!
