So, as great as Chris Petersen is as coach, it's probably because of sheer luck that Boise State even has him.

Well, of course. We were the first. At least they were nice enough to acknowledge that Boise State's field is cool while the other ones are annoying.
Boise State decathlete training for the Olympics
Kurt Felix is getting ready to compete in the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Iowa today. Then he'll be preparing to compete in London this summer for his native country of Grenada. Good luck to Felix and can't wait to see him compete this summer.
