Doesn't sound good. Lost one of the best md coaches and now faced with mediocre coaching at best.

He's an idiot. Probably could have made 6 figures.


I doubt he'll break 1:44 more than a couple of times, and might get to go to worlds once or twice.


He's one of those marginal athletes that should take whatever they can get, as long as they can get it for.

Not a reason to lose 6 figures over. He can still live in Charlottesville and screw his girlfriend while making lots of money.

Absolutely moronic. He has a chance to make the Olympic team. He needs to stay with Vig and make that team. Taking a chance with a new coach is too risky this year, there is too much on the line.

He has won NCAA titles, there is nothing else. UVA is not winning a team title. He is a DAMN P.E. Major. He will make 55k a year for the rest of his life as a P.E. Teacher.

At the very least, he should take a semester off from the team or from school. UVAs AD is too much of a pu$$y to take his scholarship away. He could return next fall.

Remember: there are WAAAY more accomplished track athletes than Andrews that missed the Olympic team, see Joe Falcon. Andrews needs to stick with Vig for at least one more season. You never know what will happen in 2016, he could get injured or sick.

He is there for the education first - it's not Oregon so the education might actually count for something.

Secondly, Vig abandoned HIM, not the other way around. Maybe he is just talented enough that anyone could coach him - it is about the athlete afterall, not the coach. Any moron can coach talented athletes.

Maybe he is talented enough to make it with anybody as his coach, maybe he is not. Why take the chance? It's the Olympics we're talking about.

Prediction: with his new coach, Robby Andrews does not win an NCAA title this year. Robby Andrews does not win a Penn Relay this year. Robby Andrews doesn't even come close to making the Olympic team.

Seriously, if these predictions came true, would it surprise anybody?

I don't think you "get it."
You don't believe God exists, so that automatically makes Tom Brady an atheist?
With my statement, I was not trying to prove God does exist, and that is not even the point of discussion. The point of discussion is what Tom Brady as an individual believes, which has nothing to do with what are the actual facts. The existence of God is not the topic at hand, quit pretending like it is.

As for Supply and Demand's link, all that proves is that some bigoted witches were patriots fans and wanted Tebow to lose because of his faith. That does not make Tom Brady an atheist.
I should have known that bringing facts into the conversation was going to cause trouble...

It will be interesting to see how life under Coach Watson will be for the guys at UVA and whether he can coach an 800/1500 guy and have him peak at the right time.

Every coach as his own system but the greats can adjust to suit the needs of the athlete.

If you think vig is the only one that can coach andrews then you are crazy or stupid. I can see andrews struggling a bit because vig will constantly be in his head telling him that he is doing is wrong. Vig equals snake. Should be an interesting soap opera. Andrews - best advice is to cut ties with the snake and actually give watson a shot.
