    Nice job Fargo Forum. Did they even know he was competing? ...

    Yeah, I just saw that too!

    That's the "A" standard and he's going to Moscow. They also showed him celebrating with an NDSU coach.

    Congratulations Riley !

    Forum said his phone has been ringing off the hook since his win.
    He passed on his last two attempts ... I wonder why? In any case, a GREAT win. great for Riley, great for NDSU, great for Stanley, ND, great for the entire state.

    Because he made the A standard and was already going to Russia. Taking out duplicate performances Riley is the 8th best thrower in
    US history.
    They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.

    Quite feasible. Had not thought of that reason.

    Nice to see that we aren't the only ones impressed ... some awfully good press out there on Riley. I have believed for a long time that NDSU is good overall at getting its athletes to perform beyond what they may have thought possible, thereby getting the most out of its people (in general). Certainly a big success story here. Impressive.

    (added this after posting the above.) Listened to the interview with Riley, coaches Justin and Larson on gobison.com. He explained why he passed.

    Thought his presser deserved to go in this thread.

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.
