Ivy Track and Field: Minimum Times for Recruiting

Does anyone know how firm the published “minimum times for recruiting” are at Ivy League track and field programs?

S has a strong AI but is a few tenths of a second slow in the 400M. Ivy coaches are calling and/or responsive, but several seem to be focused on getting him to get accepted on his own since he doesn’t meet the minimum times. Several other coaches have suggested he will get a call to bring him in for an OV in the fall. Before he makes decisions on what schools to visit (officially), we are hoping to understand to what extent S will be able to get a coaches support in the admissions process, particularly a LL. If the “minimum times” are truly minimum requirements, it will probably change where he focuses his search process.

Thanks for any for insight!
