17 time NCAA champion who averaged 3.5 individual tiles EVERY SINGLE YEAR as the most successful athlete in college history gets beat every year by, let's be honest, far lesser athletes...
What the heck happened? How bad was Robert Johnson rubbing the other coaches to have them conspire this way? Should the Bowerman change its voting to include fans and the athletes themselves? How about a separate legitimate award that uses a legitimate voting system.
Who is going to break this story?
To be fair, Keturah Orji is the Triple Jump American record holder and an Olympian, but she probably won’t ever win a title neither.
Its all about public persona. Grant Holloway, Sydney McLaughlin, Michael Norman, those are the the type of athletes that win Bowermans, they’re all either good looking or have winning personalities.
Ches is a pretty handsome Kenyan, but by western standards he’s probably more average or unattractive. That’s coupled with his conservative personality makes him a hard vote for the average person.
Good
I could believe this because Robert Johnson is not a nice person. Buttttt there’s been a couple Oregon athletes winning the Bowerman on the women’s side so idk if that lines up.
