After seeing Craig Engels make a post in support of Pete Julians leadership and subtly take a jab at Clayton, Matthew, et. al in the process, it got me thinking: how is Pete Julian innocent in any of this? He started working with Alberto in 2008 and he took on the full time assistant coach position in 2012. Assuming he took over similar roles that Steve Magness had just months prior, and knowing how much dirt Magness was involved in, it should be pretty safe to assume that Pete was VERY aware of what was going on in the NOP. It's also shocking to me that people like Craig can justify going to a team that was under investigation for doping by saying "I was coached by a different guy at that same team!!" If Julian is such an incredible coach, he had ample opportunity to start his own team and bring those athletes with him. They weren't forced to join a team that was full of suspected cheats, they willingly chose to. I used to be a fan of Engels, but this post just soured that for me as it's like he's abdicating all self=responsibility for joining a dirty group. I'm very open to someone changing my mind on this, so please discus
