I’m glad to hear that both Norman and Benjamin got their contracts taken care of and can now focus on tearing it up at the WCs and Olympics. US sprinting is going to be insane over the next several years. Now we just need the powers that be to finally let Benjamin run for the US (my bad if this has already happened). Can’t wait to see the new breed of US sprinting in action next summer!
If they allow him, it opens up the possibility for the rich countries to buy the good athletes.
Those estimates are way off. The same posters who don't believe that a decent athlete can get $10k turn around and think that their heroes can get $10m. Norman will probably get 5 years at $250k per year base with huge bonuses.
