It wouldn't be a Title 9 hit if they let Fulks and Guidry run some sprints. I don't even think those two would need a coach, they've been running track so long they have the technique down. We're talking minimal outlay, no scholarship hit. Kenric Young has some track credentials, but Guidry and Fulks would contend in the PAC. We have an incoming RB, Green (?) who was the Arizona State 110m hurdles champ, which isn't saying a lot in terms of track credentials.
Just as CU not having a baseball team kind of isolates that school from the rest of the conference, in the spring, not taking advantage of a few seriously talented athletes on the football team, to help build up the credentials of the school (and even the football) team, when the opportunity is there for the taking, is just dumb, IMO.
5 years ago we were trying to get Kalfani Mohommed (?) who ended up being a pretty good RB at Cal. He also happened to be serious about track, which might have been part of why he went to Cal. (I'm shooting in the dark on this point.)
Minimal investment - just do it!
