ok... someone posted earlier that this guy was a usualy 5.5 guy with tons of potential and might pop off a 5.8 on accident, so im thaking that to mean that they never got 19 or if they did they didnt do it that many times.

If you're looking for clues look at his personal blog site. Two outside posters have said two insightful things. Both of whom seem to know Livin The Dream 2008. One said: "If you can vault at the SerVass Center in Indy, you can do ANYTHING!" and another wrote: "Nothing like the old days a Lambert!" For those who don't know, Lambert Field is Purdue's stadium. I say Livin The Dream 2008 is Randy Miller, 4 time? All-American at Purdue, all of them in the late '90's. PR is 5.61m? The best clues of them all so far.

Its not Randy Miller, he's got 4 kids and hasn't touched a pole since 1998. Also, he and his wife are still happily married.
