Haven't seen any pics or talk of him today.

Finished going through everything from today and still haven't seen anything on Russell.

Mods from all the sites haven't even answered questions if he made it in.

Feels like things are too quiet as if everyone was told to hold off on reporting anything, but maybe it's as simple as he couldn't make it.

He was supposed to travel with his father, two other family members and arrive in Austin on Friday night.

I didn't read anything about him having a track obligation for Duncanville like Moore did.

Russell ran in a relay today in Waco, but still could've visited on Friday.

We shall see.

Would love to get this guy. Big, big OT.

If I had a crucial meet the next day, I might try to stay focused and keep activity to a minimum.
