Girl that cussed in post race Footlocker Interview?

Whether she meant bib, bitch, or bitches, it is inconsequential. She said it in such a way that it is indecipherable. She is one deeply troubled bi* or bi***.

Start of a Letsrun cult hero?

You got me looking up all her interviews and she is NEVER at a loss for words. Quite the chatterbox. I could see how she can come off as "weird" or "off" in her college visit.

Is 3rd now runner up? What should we call 2nd then?

I'll help you out with your reading comprehension.

Moron thought Nacouzi's 3rd place was evidence that she didn't need her coach or team practice.

Those more familiar with Nacouzi's talent and the Montgomery coach would argue that had she showed up to practice and been coached by Val Sell she would have not only won a state title but also gotten 2nd at Footlocker (No way could she have won). As she chose to do her own thing, she has no state title and a 3rd place at Footlocker instead.

You really are an a55hole. The girl didn't want to be on the team. Nothing wrong with that.

There is no way to know if she would have been better or worse practicing with the team and it is idiotic to even speculate.

Julie Nacouzi is a troubled young woman. Talented and tough competitor but also waaay out of balance. Remember her 3rd place finish today. She will not be heard from on the college scene.

What makes the difference?

The 5th place girl in the 2007 race CHOSE to never run a race in college.

Would you call her "troubled" or "out of balance" because she wanted to devote her life to a different endeavor than running?

Whatever you choose to do in life is up to you. But if people interview you, and you act like a freakin' wack job, then you get what you deserve. There are no excuses. You should have either prepared for or avoided the interviews.

First of all, she, without question, says "bibs"

Second, what's wrong with having a confident, vocal female distance runner for a change. Good for the sport. Good for her. I, for one hope she has an outstanding career. Of course, if she does not one of the typical LR bashers will admit they were wrong.

She definitely said BIB. That has been established. Watch the flotrack video of it.

oh my the way, it was "bib"

The interviewer said she was 5th in her regional with 5 on her bib. Wouldn't 5 on her bib mean she was 6th her regional?

Was a bib 0 issued? If not, then bib 5 should mean she was fifth at Regionals. The whole "0 on her bib" is odd anyway. The kids with zeroes on their bibs should have been the last qualifiers at their Regional meet. So what was her mother going on about?

Some strange, creepy folks posting on this thread.

No, he said she was 5th in her regional, with 5 on her bitch!

I heard this very clearly.

Really, she just sounds like a typical teenage girl- talking and talking really fast. She was prolly excited, too.

How can you not love her energy and passion for her sport?! She's clearly intelligent, and talented, I don't see why any coach wouldn't want that on their roster.

Does she have Aspergers or some other autism spectrum disorder? Her tics and quirkiness remind me of a few friends and family members who are on the spectrum...

She has full spectrum aspiration antidisestablismentarianism.

I meant Julie, not Kelsey

The girl wanted to be on the team, but the coach wanted to hurt the girl and ruin the team's season. The coach's evil plans worked as far as the team went. We all know that training with a coach like that doesn't improve on 3rd at Footlocker, so it all worked out the best, and the coach's reputation is ruined. Justice prevailed.

The girl wanted to be on the team, but didn't have the maturity to show up for a minimal number of practices that her coach required. She wasn't allowed to compete at the end of the season because of this. There were no evil plans and the team did worse because of not having Julie, but the life lessons all of these kids learned by a coach standing up for her principles is what this is really all about. Maybe Julie will grow from this as a person and learn what responsibility is all about, but definitely the remainder of the girls learned what responsibility and being part of a TEAM are all about and they are all better of for it.

Believe me, the coaches reputation is far from ruined. In fact, the majority of people that understand the situation, respect the coach even more.

The people who understand the situation = the coach, the 1st JV runner, the 1st JV runner's dad. The school admin, coach, and the team, have now being taught a valuable life lesson in public relations.
