As someone brought up Shalane earlier in the thread, what do you think is her fate? She is tied to Jerry and also hasn't had great results on the women's side on both teams, if I'm right about that.

I brought her up with a different handle. I said JS cant take credit for what she is doing with the women. She coaches them. He does not. He speaks publicly as head distance like he does because thats part of the job. But SF is their coach.

I also said he has to produce results this xc season . Period.

re: recruiting. Who do they have coming in? I saw Fasthorse from CA but have not see anyone else since? I know some athletes have reached out recently and heard nothing back from Solinksky. And yes, athletes that should hear back. Even from OR.

Oregon got lucky with some transfers. They don’t recruit well at all. They are now losing athletes left and right.

This is not true. The women will be very good next year and so will the men. All with new good recruits

She is running great, but looking at her she barely resembles the runner from last June.

Came here to say this. The women have some bright spots. Elmore can likely go even faster. She looked so effortless at the end of that race.

Simeon is GONE into the portal unless something drastically happens this outdoor season. The guy wants to race, he'll bring one or two more with him as well.

Schumacher has seemingly lost the plot. The high volume, high intensity training methods were working for a time, for some of his pros. But he's pushed it too far for even the most talented athletes to handle. Woody's and Frerichs' interviews were telling. Woody felt he was forced to do too much being a work horse for Grant, and Frerichs said she didn't like that Jerry changed the training to add even more workouts a week. He's running people into the ground.

Pretty sure both he and Connor Burns were injured in the fall, and he's literally not been able to race til now. Both of them couldn't run for a long time. They seem very deflated. Both say it was "their fault" for running so many miles and at such fast paces.
