Smith or Dathan are the only American coaches with the resume worthy of this switch. unless he is going to Alberto, which is ridiculously unlikely.
i am on the edge of my seat waiting for the answer. this is shocking.
Woody might not be happy about Fisher joining, I'm not kidding.
Would be very funny if he went back to Michigan and joined Very Nice and switched to Adidas. That said, probably (and should) join Mike Smith and keep a Nike contract.
Worst decision in the history of decisions.
I told you guys.
Arms behind head, shirt reveals belly.... that’s the Galen-ist Rupp pose I’ve ever seen

Although given the money, recent success of young track athletes, and recent lack of success by American men, I think he should go to the marathon, which would open up more training opportunities. Don't even really need to be with a team.
i trust that grant is a smart guy and has a good idea of what has worked and what hasn't. he is most likely not looking to re-invent the wheel. look at would woody did post bowerman. jakob without gjert. Grant has a good head on his shoulders, and im sure made the decision with clarity.
I think he's going to join OTC with Ben and the gang.
Cole left to Virginia so OTC needed another big name to replace him
lmao someone tag me in the screenshot
Maybe Rojo convinced him to switch to the steeple and he’s moving to Baltimore to train.
Gjert would be interesting
Between this and the Gjert story, this has to be one of the all-time top days for LRC gossip content.
Doesn't make sense to switch to the marathon in 2024.

The thought crossed my mind, but I don't think it'll be an issue. Grijalva has the same pedigree as Fisher, and he was there when Woody joined.
Assuming Fisher's going there, The Mike Smith has to be the ultimate running example of "Build it and they will come". He's built the best group in the country for distance runners, first at the collegiate level, and now at the pro level. He's not even able to officially have a group at the pro level. On Coffee Club a couple months ago, one of the guys was saying Smith told them to stop calling it a group, because it wasn't a group, it was just a "collection of athletes". But he has the women's 1500m national champ, men's 5k and 10k national champs, and a guy who's gotten 4th at Worlds 2 years in a row.

The Friday 15 is gonna be LIT tomorrow!
I can't believe someone so smart is doing something so destructive to his future performance and earnings. Good thing Evan did not leave after he got injured the first time.
Actually you didn't. You wrote a headline indicating it had happened.
Then you wrote a post asking, What are the odds this happens?
If you had some basis to think it was going to happen, you should've said so, and should've written an honest header for it.
