For serious? He and Wallace Spearmon were two of the most dominant collegiate sprinters of all-time while they were in college together. They basically won us two national titles* all by themselves.
*Two later taken away by the NCAA because of illegal activities by Lance Brauman while he was coaching at JUCO.

You had to be a fan before CBMFP was hired, apparently.

Of those 28, how many of them are actually on Team USA?
Very, very few. But if you bring it up, you are a closed minded bigot and a racist.

As an update, the Florida Gator Olympian count is up to 36 athletes, if you count all athletes that have ties to the Gator program (incoming freshmen and transfers to other schools). Otherwise, it's 33 plus two coaches.
I've written about it here: LINK

For this year alone:
The ten Razorback heading to London are:
Raymond Higgs (Bahamas) - long jump
Marek Niit (Estonia) - 200 meters
Alistair Cragg (Ireland) - 5,000 meters
Tyson Gay (USA) - 100 meters
Jeremy Scott (USA) - pole vault
Wallace Spearmon, Jr. (USA) - 200 meters
Regina George (Nigeria) - 400 meters
Ivanique Kemp (Bahamas) - 100 meters
Tina Sutej (Slovenia) - pole vault
Don't the know the total for past Olympiads, but John McDonnell alone had at least 23 Olympians in his career. (which would include Gay and Spearmon from above). Sure there have been additional ones maybe in basketball and womens sports.
