[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So it’s clear that no one in this thread knows annything about track. UVA somehow got Vin Lananna away from Oregon (was at Nike and Stanford prior) to he Director of Track & Field. He’s a literal legend. President of USA Track & Field. His reputation for working with students is sterling.

Lananna was a great coach!  Unfortunately, he is 72 and from what I've heard, he delegates to his assistants quite a bit[/quote]

Yes - just googled it. For someone who isn't even in college yet, I'm guessing he is highly unlikely to be there for all four years of college.

Your child will be spending a ton of time with the other members of the team - cross country runners in particular tend to be very cliquey (this is not a bad thing - just a general rule of thumb - I have several close friends who ran XC in college and most of their close friends were from their teams - great groups of guys). How do they fit in on the two teams?

The other question is $$$. Are you getting a scholarship? What is your net cost.

If your child wants Econ and thinks they might want business, try to get a guaranteed acceptance to McIntire. Doesn't hurt to ask. Worst case they don't use it.[/quote]
