clown car local police messed up chain of custody on rape kit, plus local da was in bed with the university w/r/t defending athletes (see also: baylor, etc.)

school disciplinary committee has a different standard and found him guilty, told him to leave campus and never come back

that's your anchor, gb

Ah OK so he wasn't found guilty at all then is what you're trying to say.

Mo Farah started doing push ups under Salazar, that allowed him his 52-53 second closing laps. /s

But didn't Mitchell-Blake still race his senior year at LSU?

Yes.

Norway's crime rate of 34 is a bit over half of Kenya's 61 and less than the UK's 44.

Nutritionists are quite useless overall, so IDK what benefit he’d get from hiring one, except for drug access. The nutritionist at my college (that everyone on the team is forced to meet with at the start of the season), told me to put peanut butter on spaghetti and, freshman year, recommended a brand of protein bar that I made the mistake of actually buying and consuming. The bar ended up being a nuclear laxative and I missed an afternoon of classes due to being practically chained to the toilet.

No kidding. Look at the guy. And look at the event he runs. There are no fairy tales.

Exactly. Unless you’re a complete idiot or have absolutely terrible eating habits, you don’t need a nutritionist. Just seems like Jacobs needed a “hookup” and connections to get peds.

It doesn’t help that Jacobs is JACKED AS HELL (especially for a track athlete) and ran a blazing 9.8 out of nowhere. The Italians are saucy (Tortu included) and we will have to see if they are bought to justice.

People are just in denial. Dude is more built than Ben Johnson and almost broke the 9.8 barrier (no one other than Bolt and brommel have gone under 9.8 and not failed a ped test), what’s the chance he isn’t using something? Just a matter of whether he’s caught for doping or not.

He doesn't look JACKED. In fact he is one of the least JACKED sprinters I've ever seen. He looks "heavy" (euphemism for fat) for a sprinter.

This is what JACKED looks like. Ben Johnson had muscles coming out of his ears. Marcell Jacobs by comparison is obese.

this is absolutely true

Right, so compare people in various states of extension and flexion and comment on them

especially if the French/Italian are involved

Jacobs could take Ben Johnson in an WWE Raw cage match. He is jacked. Take it to the bank. 🏦

So every elite sportsperson who taps into a nutritionist is either seeking doping links/substances or eating crap and needing to be set right? What about a really fine athlete seeking a range of options that might cumulatively add about 2% to performance, of which nutrition might be be one strand? is 'quite useless' another way of saying ' of some small benefit'. The minds of some people on this MB are so screwed. As the articles point out, Jacobs left the person months ago (Ah, wait, now i get it, he must have got 6 months PEDs, bulk bought, then ditched the guy to retain the moral high ground)

Oh, the quoted 2nd para above seems to have appeared as my own. It's not though
