I don't know if he's the greatest D1 XC coach of all time. There are certainly guys with more wins:

Sort of circular reasoning here. When you win all the time, there is less parity by definition.

I'd consider Wetmore if he left Colorado and was able to replicate this success at another program. Much like a Nick Saban and Urban Meyer. Get out of your comfort zone, your bubble, the Boulder mecca, go to a big city and try to win it there. Then he would sky-rocket. I place John McDonnell ahead of him, as well as Vin Lannana.
Big city? What top XC programs are in a big city? Eugene is not a big city. Fayetteville is not a big city.
Just wanted to get this thread started early to celebrate Wetmore winning both genders later today.
