A Distance Set @ Texas : Speakers & Interviews

yeah me too i keep thinking that they are so fast then remember!

Seems like something we would have challenged Joe-Boy, Andy Schmidt, and Harlow with "back in the day." I like it. Thanks for sharing, Kris!

I keep forgetting ths is a yard pool. From UK.

if eddie reese ever retires i think kris kubik should take over the program to carry the tradition of greatness at UT

This video isnt working right now.

Jackson,

As a former teammate and current friend, I would like to commend you for your fast swimming in this video. However, if I was to ever see you flip like this again, I would disown any knowledge of your existence. On a side note, congratulations on being a big XII (3) champion.
eom

I agree. We need to see some Bryan Collins videos.
And about the arm...
Bryan told me it happend while wrestling a grizzly bear.

Good set men

Not that I want to get in this petty argument, but I just want to make sure that one of the previous comments was not overlooked. When in a race, the momentum of the flip would carry you into the wall. Anyone doing 50s in practice and actually hitting their feet on the wall with momentum would be the one practicing poor technique. Come on guys, these are the best in the country at what they do, they are always in race mode.
Hook em

Looks like Dave got to do the 50 at big 12's hah.

Dear Jackson

Despite the fact that they are filthy delinquents, I agree with jordan and AJ. Your flipping at the 24 and 3/4ths yard mark is simply unacceptable. In fact, i bet its how you went a 4:13 tonight in your 500 at big 12s. Still, i feel that it is my duty to forgive you since im gonna be teammates with your goofy ass next year.
We're not mad, we just want a little more effort out of you. thats all.

For the 10000000th time where are the Byran Collins vid's? I heard his arm got ran over by a freight train

man, walters is my hero

I noticed big time the jealousy of stanford
on Texas, whats up with that? They may
be the ones here barking, just saying.

How many times have you one armed a fly or breast turn in practice or had a lazy finish into a wall on a sprint or taken a breath out of a turn? Give me a break people - appreciate what is on this site for what it is showing. Do you lack that much confidence in yourself that you feel you have to pick apart this elite program? Go look in the mirror before you point the fingers. If you do everything perfectly all the time and go faster than these cats, then throw all you want. Otherwise, take your weak opinions somewhere else.

When I went to school ,Texas was aconic.
There was Peirsol,Crocker,and Hansen
at the same school at the same time. People
respected that talent so much and the man
behind them.We were in awe to see them at
meets,Texas will always be a target because
they are the best. Notice nobody cares about
the other schools, a tribute to an amazing
program.Thank you for taking us there
and so often.
.

Thanks for sharing UT!

I'm pretty sure that also wasn't the real Salnikov so we probably shouldn't deface his wiki page.

wow thanks for pointing out that long forgotten about rule to all of us other rookies who also like to watch and comment on the videos. what exactly is wrong with his comment?

Jackson,

It really was anoying how you flipped early. I do accept your apology, though. Just try and worlk a little harder next time. I guess that's all were asking. wwjd

Yeah jackson it really makes me mad that you flip early. This basically means that your 4:16 at Texas Invite doesnt count because I'm sure you flipped early during that too.

Why does it say its 10.30 minutes long when its only 8.30 minutes long? Well thats what I got anyway.

How you say in English "suck it"?

Hmm okay colt im gonna have to call bs on that also...why dont you lend us a name so we can follow you at NCs big shot...cant believe you, watching this video and then cutting down some of the best swimmers in the country...pathetic...anyways set looks awesome great job keep up the good work

End of that video with the guys on deck is classic! Of course, Ed in there with the last word....

this set is awesome to watch no matter what school you represent. Always good to know how different teams train. I agree that some florida sets would be sick, but Troy isn't alway the most open book...

Why dont you tell us your name then?

Please come up with your own name... Im not from Florida!! They only recruit caribs. But let me tell you that i could smoke you in any race. youll definitely be seeing me at NCAAs Div 1, somewhere youll prolly never be

i love how people come on floswimming and show their bitterness and jealousy. The top programs in the Nation are always taking heat for "showing off". Sorry that's just them showing their talent and dedication with a top notch coaching staff. People actually have to resort to nit pick their turns in practice just to be able to feel better about themselves. I'm assuming most of the haters don't belong to programs like Texas, Auburn, or Arizona so they feel the need to knock them down.
Its way lame to come here and dog swimmers like Klueh for not breaking a record and making juvenile comments about how their bodies look. If you don't want to watch anymore Texas sets then don't click the play button. You keep stayin' classy guys.

Every body just be quiet... The only reason Mcaffrey put this video up is so that everyone could see that I have a potential third event... Three Meter diving. My gainer was insane. Im ed.

you know what i meant

rookie mistake commenting on your own video. obviously a freshman move.

ps. missing the wall in a meet constitutes a disqualification. essentially meaning, you get last.

they wont be going back to Texas. NCAAs are in College Station. This makes you wrong on both accounts.

um im calling bs on that one!

I guess the end does justify the mean. We will see what happens when the longhorns go back to Texas with another NCAA disappointment.

The mile isn't even a race, anonymous coward, step up and race me in the 50. I'll even let you flip a foot from the wall if you want. That's a real race.

colt 45, you must have no idea what you're saying. the ends justify the means. i guess dave walters breaking an american record in the 2free isn't a big deal.

How much did they pay mcaffrey to show this set. I am tired of Texass always trying to showoff. Last year there was hype that klueh was gonna break the AR at ncaas, bummer, that didn't happen. Instead he's too busy scratching off fake lotto cards. Who cares that Texas can swim far. It's in the shorter races they need to work on. I'd like to see them do some 25s no breath on 15 or something useful. And how in the hell does this set give respect to UT swimming. Half the people didn't even finish the set. I wonder if they are rested! All this hype, definitely over rated. They were also looking pretty scrawny in the video. Maybe they should think about lifting a weight or two. I got a buddy that can show them a thing or two..

Listen to greg troys media interview the other night. He knows what he is talking about.

I went 14:54 in the 1500, LONG COURSE IN 1983!

that set is so tight. everyone needs to quit sippin' on the haterade

i like eddie jumping in there at the end

Jackson, your apology is not accepted. It is completely unacceptable that you would even think about flipping early.

all these people that are posting and saying that this set sucks obviously aren't very knowledgeable about swimming. this set is sick, so give some respect to university of texas swimming.

Don't apologize to me, apologize to the people of my hometown: all of Leningrad.

I apologize for flipping to early. I sincerely hope I don't cause any dismay.

Actually, I am the one commented. And I am faster. So there.

Even if they were in a race, they would still flip at the same spot. Their momentum just carries them into the wall. Walters' broken 200 shows this really well, it looks like he takes his last stroke at the flags.

The only reason they come up short is because they're not pushing off.

haha never send a miler in to do a man's job

you, sir, are a JERK. shame on you for insinuating you are anywhere near as fast as what we just witnessed.

so the set was 8 x 48s on 45?

I changed the description so it reads the correct set. 6 total 300s and 36 total 50s.

wow colt 45 sounds a little bitter... yeah they have their way of training... and its FAST. haha im not sure how you train but this seems to work for them and its pretty entertaining so if you think it sucks then dont watch it. and as for the flips, give me a break they are at most about a foot away from the wall its making less than a tenth difference stop nitpicking

Hey Texass, if you could hold those mile pace times, you'd be swimming for texas wouldn't you?

nevermind it's not letting me write the 2nd 300. you guys get it though

woops forgot a 300.
4x:
1 x 300
8 x 50
then
3x:
4 x 50

So the set is actually

4x:
1 x 300
8 x 50
then
3x:
4 x 50
Sick practice. You have to give it to distance guys they know how to train. This is a real quality set too. Love it

they seem pretty legit to me, even with the early flipping. i like to see the distance sets

I am tired of seeing breakthrough practice performances. Quite frankly who cares. They have there way of training just like every other team in the nation. I agree with my boy texass, they seem to flip early. Keeping practicing the bad techniques.

This set sucks!

It actually ends up being 7 300s with 4 in the first set and 3 in the second. The explanation is a little confusing but watching the video makes it a little more clear.

yeah they did seem to flip a little early, but its good to see a freshman throwing down with the big guys

i could hold some pretty sick mile pace times if i flipped at the flags too.

i am sure texas gives a flip about their conference meet...

These guys are jut awesome. I love watching the Texas sets on the Flo. Nice work.

Walters NCAA record in the 200 free this year...

So, is that a total of 18x300's?

They did the 300s with 4 50s and then did the 2nd round with 200s and 50s. I wish I could have included everyone but with all the different practices taking place its tough.

What happened to the 3 other guys that started the set ???

Ah! How I missed you WWW.

Hell yes! Thanks, Floswimming!

thier coach seems like a reallyfun guy

Nice pool deck gainer to face plant lolz
