This guy is the most insecure racist I’ve ever seen, literally won’t give Yared his respect because his an East African. If Yared was British born Caucasian he’d be kissing his A#%
And at the same time propping up lesser colored players.

And your type is the most vile racist there is. Putting down Jakob from the beginning just because he's white while he was beating up everyone in sight. You just can't stand it. It's just like in the NBA where a whole slew of left wing nuts put down the best basketball player -Jokic and it's working in conjunction with this whole built in left wing loonie system in which a white guy can do no right. And at the same time propping up lesser colored players. You want Nuguse to beat Jakob so badly but you're getting your dose of much needed reality
This is true. Part of the overboard hype for Nguse was that he is both American and East African. Nguse is a LetsRun poster's wet dream come true. Not only putting the USA back on the map, but taking down the white boy who upset their weird racial theories (or so they hoped and prayed).
FFS, and barring injury, it is pretty obvious that Nuguse is going to do well at the global level. It was his first top level run, and he beat all but the great Norwegian. Hoare, for one, is a decent runner, 3rd DL final and Commonwealth Games champion.
The CURRENT ranking based om real performances in 2023 should in my opinion be:
1. Jakob
2. Nuguse
3. Tim
4. Reynold
5. -7. Hoare, Gourley, Kipsang.
You cannot rank persons who haven´t raced a decent run yet.
I know Tim has the world lead in the outdoor 1500m but I think the conditions in L.A. was better than in Rabat and that Jakob and Nuguse will go 1 and 2 in Oslo.

This is like assessing whether Barcelona are better than Real Madrid during the summer break. How many times have we seen people surpass our expectations early in the season and then burn out or get injured when it really counts? Even if you do decide to rank them now, putting Nuguse above Tim makes absolutely no sense.

Nope look at his comment gave props to hoare and he came third… Also I’ve never put down jakob he is the best distance athlete on the planet right now and is so consistent

Talk about a straw man. First of all, it's Nuguse. Second of all, all the Americans on the boards most of all want to see is an American who went through the system medal. There's quite a bit excitement about Grant Fisher, though the Shelby fiasco (and Jerry's handling) has soured BTC for some folks a la Salazar/Rupp. If your dumb theory were correct, Abdi Nur would be wildly more popular than Cooper Teare, Cole Hocker and Hobbs Kessler or something and actually the complete inverse is true.

Poor Nuguse. So much hope for him. Inge didn't even break a sweat. Well theres at least Kessler who looks promising for the US.
That is so funny. The guy sets a new outdoors (not sure what his indoor time is but that's totally different) PERSONAL BEST by 26 seconds, beats everybody in a stacked field but one, beats Hoare which is no easy task and he is devastated?? Losing to the best 1500 meter runner in the world by a few seconds tells me he is on to something very good here.
Sheesh! You can only improve so fast you know. Nuguse is in great shape!
