About Eddie Reese 

Organization:University of Texas
Bio:
It could be viewed as "intimidating." Eddie's list of accomplishments in the sport of swimming could make a newcomer scared to meet a man like Coach Reese. But as that scared newcomer, I learned nothing…

resting is a valuable part of training as well though. i would think that if one of those guys popped off a 1:31 or 1:30 it would have been a huge confidence builder.

Why was wearing a LZR? Presumably because he wants to get a feel for the suit he's going to be wearing at Trials. Would you wear a new type of goggles for the first time at the most important meet of your life? Probably not. Same thing should go for the suit.

yea that suit that kleuh is wearing is a womens suit, the back of it doesnt have a zipper and all the mens suits zip up in the back, its the women's suits that dont

Liberty Valance   June 19, 2008 at 11:37am
I heard there is a problem with the LZRs fitting well. I think of lot guys are wearing womens 27s or 28s. apparently speedo made all the sizes to large. womens suits! its only a matter of time before they are dressing in drag.

Swim Gal   June 19, 2008 at 10:29am
dang he was fast
that suit didn't look like it fit well
when it said part 1, does this mean that we will see the rest of the team in a part 2?

Geezer   June 19, 2008 at 6:22am
Wait, the rested "a little" for Santa Clara but not NCAA's..haha
Aside from that, Klueh should def go under 347 after going 410 at NCAA.
But what I want to know is how is the LZR so readily available that they can train in it

In answer to what was David Walters and Ricky doing doing during this set, they were playing sharks and minos in the hot tub. Great set by Klueh he has the potential to have a gnar butter 400

yeah....what is the rest of the team doing, it would have been nice to see others like dave and ricky on this video!!

NC's may be the biggest meet of the year, but for most is overshadowed by the biggest meet every 4 years.
reply  
#17
Swimmer   June 18, 2008 at 7:20pm
I can imagine that a majority of the crowd that is ranked top in the country Walters, Klueh exc. wanted to do really well at trials. Eddie and the team prolly wanted to win conference so they rested like a week because they wanted to get back to training. Look at how many longhorn swimmers are going to trials...

Tim Berens   June 18, 2008 at 7:18pm
if you listened eddie said that he didnt rest dave and michael but the rest of the team rested for NCAAs and they were not rested for conference

thats bull that they didnt rest for ncaas. what team would not rest the the biggest meet of the year. thats waht coach reese wants people to think. they were flat because they obviously were so rested for conference. they had no reason not to rest. they had no foreigners to keep up for their countries trials.

I think the 400 is going to be the most intense race of the meet. I think PVK will win but 2nd is up in the air between Vendt, Keller, Jensen, and Kleuh. Keller seems to be the sleeper pick. There hasn't been much hype behind the former American record holder, but he is always cluth. I can't wait.

What was the rest of the team doing? It just seems like the Michael Kleuh show. Anyone else agree?

Acslater   June 18, 2008 at 3:18pm

and 7 guys under 3:47? definately...im going to go as far as to predict 4 guys under 3:45 with the top two pushing a sub 3:43 swim
theres no chance phelps and lochte will swim the 400...they are going to have enough onn their respective plates to make it a physically tough meet without a 400 free
reply  
#2
Anonymous Coward   June 18, 2008 at 2:17pm
yeah i think so too and lazy...i'm not sur if lochte and phelps are gonna swim the 400...they are on the psyche sheet but it's just after the 400 im...

Lazy Login'er   June 18, 2008 at 1:18pm
Just when I thought the 400 looked like it was gonna be a dog fight with PVK, Keller, Vendt, Jensen, Phelps, and Lochte, Kleuh goes and does this... Damn you, Eddie!!! How am I supposed to accurately predict who's going to win things if you keep allowing Garrett to post these video's!!! Now I have absolutely no idea what's gonna happen, except that there are 7 dudes who can legitimately go sub 3:47... Amazing. This and the 200 are going to be so deep...

In part one of Taper at Texas we watch Michael Klueh descend down in three 300s. Being on deck with Eddie Reese is always fun... Tunes: The Stone Coyotes, "Trouble Down in Texas" Link
