Crown and Bluecoats medaled (multiple times) before they beat BD for their first championship. I think that should be their next goal for "Building a Champion". 

 Break the mold and blow up that " Competitive Inertia Theory," once and for all... lol.

Is that the same root word that also gives us decadence?

 No. It gives us a decade of decadence.

 I think we're coming up on our anniversary shortly.

 I thought George Bush was at fault. ( but maybe it was the Bush's fault for BD winning in the 80's/ 90's... lol )

Actually, as far as top 2 finishes go, since coming into their dynasty during the Ford administration, it was the first Bush who they fared the worst under.  They didn't even make the top 3.  Apparently winning a medal would not have been prudent at that time.

Top 2 finishes by president:

Trump 1/1

Obama 8/8

Bush 6/8

Clinton 4/8

Bush 0/4

Reagan 5/8

Carter 3/4

So Blue Devils has made  top two 75% of the time under Democratic presidency and only 57% of the time under Republican presidency.

 

My prediction: the next 3-7 years could be rough for BD...
