Breakdown: The all-time record holder Marcellus Moore graduated high school early to attend Purdue University. Now, there will be a new sprint king stateside, but the question is who is ready to take the mantle? Jermarrion Stewart appears to be the heir to the throne, the quiet kid from grabbed silver in last year's race.
AJ Henning could be the surprise here, third place as a freshman in this event injuries has hampered his ability here in past years. The future Michigan Wolverine on the gridiron hopes to end his career with gold.
Xavier Curtis flexed his muscle here during championship season last year. The speedster has already shown improvements this preseason, look for him to take that next step.
There are a bunch of quality sprinters in this field who may burst out this season, please don't blink on any one race because you never know.
