Hey everyone, just to update you - Parker, Heather, and Emily have all left the group. The rumor is that Elle might be next and that she won't be coming back. So, at the moment, no one is left in the group.
Seems like a BTC and we all know what happen there
if the insinuation is BTC disbanded because of Shelby doping this couldn't be further from the truth.
Matter fact they went to bat for her in a way that still makes zero sense. they all seem to be buddy buddy with shelby and with each other except for the only vocal houlihan critic Debues Stafford.
it disbanded based on what i gather from athlete interviews the move to Eugene with no heads up from the coach and the fallout from sharing a coach that was already unavailable before taking on responsibility for an entire college program.
When BTC was no longer viable, nike decided to cut the umbilical cord.
The New Balance story is what happens with most pro groups, athletes coming in an out for different reasons. track is not a team sport. some groups last longer than others but it always goes this way.
I am sure New Balance will keep funding it as long Coogan keeps producing results.
