Wow... sounds like Coach Conner is knocking it out of the park this offseason:

With Osoro on board, Trevor Dunbar already signed up, and Kipchumba only a sophomore next year... wow. UPXC looks like it has a VERY bright future!!!

Lets hope we see lots of this...

Wow, Congrats to Coach Conner!! This is phenominal... and what a story for this guy, coming from an orphaned childhood.

The addition of Osoro to a team that already includes Alfred Kipchumba, another Kenyan, could help turn the Pilots into an NCAA Championship contender over the next several years.

"I like the attention the coaches and the instructors in the classrooms paid to the individuals," Osoro said. "It is already one of the best cross-country programs in the nation and I want to be part of that tradition."

Wow, how many more Kenyans can we land on the team? Just ridiculous. What are the chances that there is an Olympian who emerges from this group?

I can't wait until the day when we beat Oregon.
