It would be so cool if Gary Hall swam a 21.6 for the 50 free. What a statement that would make; a world record in an off meet. I think Gary Hall is the most under rated Olympian ever. He has more medals than Ian Thorpe or any other American Sprinter yet you hear all Popov or Jaeger.
Then there is Amanda Weir who has two silvers from Athens, holds the American record for the 100m free in a time of 53:58. She obtained this record after beating Natalie Coughlin for it by 1/2 a body length at Conoco Phillips Meet. [Link to Google video] She is only 21-years-old too and is another underrated Olympian who will surprise at Nationals.
Here is an article about the event and who is swimming in it: [Link]
