MIT's backstroke squad (on the women's side) could be lethal come NCAAs. Beyond Augustyn and Yang, Smith and Naveen have also been 55-point in the 100.

Tbf MIT’s Men’s class came out swinging in certain areas. Tobe dropping a nation leading 20.30 what I’m assuming was Unsuited is insane in October and a 19.5 relay split too.

Agreed. I think the 'to be seen' has less to do with the elite status of Mr. Obochi (well established) and more to do with how much value the rest of that squad will generate this season. Not saying they don't have the talent to surprise us by being a top five team, simply that the MIT Men as a top five team would be a surprise.

Fair enough I completely forgot to mention that their freshman class for the most part showed up as well which for them is huge but your right this is definitely a to be seen.
