Because they have Gebrhiwet who is faster than Kejelcha in the 5k and they could pull in two youngsters that Will keep the high pace for Hagos.
Yeah lol because Kejelcha wouldn't keep a high pace and definitely isn't known for frontrunning. 0/10
Real answer is because someone high up in the eth federation is really dumb or more likely had some problem/debt with some coach. Shady stuff but there's no other explanation with a 12:38 guy in the shape of his life.
You understand little about athletics: 0/10. Kejelcha would never sacrifice to make a fast pace for Gebrhiwet so he would run looking at his own interest trying to medal himself. The gwo youngsters unknown ethiopians Will do the pacers for Hagos actually so that they will smash Jakob at a 12' 40"-12' 50" pace.

Jakob is just gonna tuck in behind the green and red line and go for a free ride. 12:40-12:50 pace won’t phase him. Ask his 7:54 2 mile last year and 7:23 3000 24 hours after his 3:43 mile.

Oh I may understand nothing about athletics, but it's still definitely more than the third most downvoted poster on these boards. Concerning your specific post, "run looking at his own interest" doesn't mean anything in practice. If he puts up a fast pace he puts it up, and you can draft off it. He's not going to start doing slaloms to avoid Gebrhiwet sitting on him.
Moreover, your limited view of this sport doesn't allow you to recall that young ethiopians are notoriously unreliable pacers. 0/10
Edit: also I didn't even notice that my post you claim shows my limited understanding of athletics has 32 likes and your dislike lol. I guess no one understands athletics but you and Khamis

Yeah dude, sure. They are totally going to run a pace no one else can run. That makes perfect sense.
Gebrhiwet ran 12:36, so there's still a stud in there. And he closed like 56 seconds in that race. In a 12:50 type race he can probably close in 54 seconds or faster and give Jakob a run. Jakob's races he won were only 13:05 ish in a 53 close.

Go back and watch Gebrhiwet's 12:36 race. Who was up there at the front pushing the pace?
My guess is rhe microdosing levels were too high and they are worried about a positive test. Their trainers can use the same tests as the Federation so I am guessing that is why Kip is out. I agree with previous poster Chep probably partied too hard / was worn out after the 10k
