Oh yes, got it. The U.S. can take advantage of runners from other countries. Other runners setting records for their countries is of no importance.
If Ritz ran 12:56, Galen can get in the 12:40s.

So you don't believe that Levins and Farah have benefitted from Salazar, Rupp, NOP? It's mutually beneficial for all. A team works together for the benefit of all. I'm sure Levins and Farah would like to see Rupp get the AR, considering they both have set multiple NR's while training with Rupp under Salazar, and also gained a few medals along the way.

What are some of these "multiple NRs" that Levins has set?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't he have the indoor 2000, 2 mile and 5000 records? I believe he missed Sullivan's 3000 indoor record by one second, despite running in one shoe.

You're corrected.

i'd put his current "ceiling" at
~ 3'29 / 7'20 / 12'40
here is 1 scrubbee
Rupp was in ~ 26’35 shape if flat-out from gun-to-tape in eugene ( maybe quicker now )
his concomitant 400 speed couda been anywhere from 50.0 ( mo at 49-high ) to 51-mid
that offers prelim lines of fit for him currently as :
26’35 / 51.5 ->
1’48.3
3’32.1
4’48.3
7’24.0
12’44.4
or
26’35 / 51.0 ->
1’47.6
3’31.0
4’47.0
7’22.6
12’43.1
or
26’35 / 50.5 ->
1’46.8
3’29.9
4’45.8
7’21.2
12’41.7
or
26’35 / 50.0 ->
1’46.0
3’28.8
4’44.5
7’19.8
12’40.4
i’m going with one of latter 2 lines, favouring 2nd last
his “ceiling” if he has has at worst eugene form is
3’29 / 7’20 / 12’40
( i hope it survives )
i must admit, lucky the above got scrubbed as Rupp is likely to be more in 26'30 shape this season peak assuming no injuries & back training hard after insomnia of fatherhood
but someone else can do
26'30 / 51.5 - 50.0...

your post reveals your failure of understanding.
nop + rupp + salazar ≠ 1
rupp has been the one who has benefited from farah and levins. rupp needs to pay them back. it is time for rupp to be the sacrificial pace-setting cow.

No he cannot. That is somewhat akin to saying that if Rupp can run 26:44, then Ryan Hall can run 26:40. It just doesn't make any sense.
Ventolin, you just are so stubborn and adamant about Rupp's 5000m abilities. It is as if I ran a dozen 100m dashes in 11.2-11.3 seconds (at separate track meets) over several years, and you kept saying that I could run 10.9, just because your calculator insisted on it...It is bordering on the absurd.

If Galen got into the 12:40s, then Rupp can go sub 12:40.
i don't like to be on an island, but if I was forced to predict Rupp's ceiling I may have to say 12:55
Baby, baby. Babies. Twins. Mass quantities of diapers. Endless sleepless nights. Dead of night feedings.
Rupp will never never the underside of 13:00 again.
in the right race he's a 12:55 man
A second better than 12.56 peaking.
12.55
You 12:55 imaginators are smoking some really odd stuff. It shouldn't be possible for some many Rupp-fans to experience the same pup-tent making night dream, but you guys have managed to do just that.
The reality of it all is, Rupp will never sniff sub 13 ever again. That is a Rupp-fact of life.

Rupp can sniff sub 13, but remember sometimes you can sniff something from a little distance...Frankly, I smell a rat...

Can't we all get along with the consensus of roughly 12:55?
