This sort of hiding from the media and refusing to answer questions by a top coach wouldn't be tolerated in any other sport.

He wasn't at World Champs. He didn't give interviews at Boston -- Pete Julian served as his mouthpiece. He hasn't addressed the leaked USADA report, which came out in the spring. He's been MIA at track meets where Oregon Project athletes have competed. Heck, he's not even in the Galen Rupp Workout Wednesday video from June 2017 after the Portland Track Festival. He used to be practically ON TOP of Rupp in workout videos.

Gault, you should track him down in Chicago and ask him the tough questions. He's been a downright embarrassment to the sport.

He HAS been a downright embarrassment to the sport. What has he ever given back to the sport that has made him a wealthy man? He was a punk at Oregon and remains a two-bit punk today. Just a very selfish person.

I don't mean to excuse the doping allegations but, why should he do interviews if that's all he going to be asked about? Maybe he's decided to step out of the spotlight for other reasons.

Literally the reason America is still relevant on the world stage from the 1500- marathon... What more could he give back?

Heard he's cutting activities for health reasons.
