I'm hoping this can be a place to look at the American's men's field this season. Lots of stats and analysis to be expected here.
This is a placeholder post until I get all the stats and will be updated throughout the season.
As with the U.S. Ladies, I will focus on U.S. men who are senior nationally (so yes, JGP folks who are at the senior level nationally are included)

Initial thoughts and observations.
1.) Field is WIDE open. I consider it a clean slate. Jason Brown and Jeremy Abbott may have been top two last year, but I certainly can see a completely different turnout for the three worlds spots in 2015. It's a bit early to say where the momentum lies, but Richard Dornbush is looking pretty good as is Max Aaron so far. We'll see how Jason looks after Nebelhorn this weekend.
2.) Quad, quad, quad? Who will land it? Max Aaron is the only U.S. man to have a ratified quad so far this season. Dornbush and Miner attempted 4S. Douglas Razzano and Grant Hochstein attempted 4T. No sign of a quad from Jason Brown yet.
