Don't know about coaching... If a step up is still not in the CAA top 25 , what is the point? Jared Griffin soph 12.09/24.96 didn't run this season  ; shaliciah Jones 11.77/24.53 only ran in High Point meet; Scott 11.99/23.83 is better at 400... Are the current sprinters on the roster....not impressive |

I see a impressive group especially with one season under their belt. Coach will get them right . |

Coaching could be the issue Probably still a step up from what is currently on the team. Let's hope it's coaching. Her best event is the 200 and she doesn't crack the CAA top 25 with her personal best. Don't confuse Her best event with her best time, because the 200 may not be her best even . Coach will do the assessment and determine what our best event is. It may be the 400. Also with her times she is not a step up she is a project. |

People want (not saying you Max)dominate runners out the gate with out understanding the process . Track athletes can drop minutes and seconds and gain distance with in a years time with the right coaching and in cases event change . I trust Coach Johnson's process with the same trust I had with Coach Ross . Sending 4 individuals and a rely to Nationals ,after all A&T have lost is a good sign going forward 😊 |

I don't understand why you would say we are "exactly where we need to be with female sprints" and say they are a young group with potential '. The 3 women previously Mentioned will be juniors , Perry 12.22/24.34/54.90 will be a senior. Only Scott scored ( 7th 200 and 6th 400) at the CAA championship.

Like I said " we are exactly where we need to be " . Coach Johnson has had time to gage the talent on hand , in saying that , he has a better idea of what he needs to improve his team . It's not about what we the fans see or think but what Johnson sees and is seeing. A&T lost almost all of her dominant female sprinters along with their male sprinters also . No we are not at the level we once were, because that is apart of the rebuilding process. It took Ross 10 years to get us there both men and women. Hopefully it want take Coach Johnson's that long ,but we will get there. Trust the process. |

My disappointment so far is numbers. It's June and we have a dozen holes and only a hand full of commitments.

Commitments can change at the drop of a hat 😆 I care about the offers and the ones that sign/NlA's . I'm also not worried about the numbers because they don't mean squat , Without QUALITY in those numbers . Quality is the key 🔑 . |
