Nearly every deleted post in this thread is Barrett Dahl posting a long rant about how he is the most narcisstic coach despite not even being a coach. Do you want those ridiculous posts to remain? Just wait a few minutes; I'm sure he will post it again ... and again ... and again ... and again ...
Auto-deletes allow those kinds of posts and the porn links that he posts to disappear faster.
Patches O'Houlihan is the king of the Narcissistic group of coaches. The guy still rocks his Championship Dodgeball G-1 Leather Flight Jacket which is the Olympic Gold Medal of the Dodgeball community. Also, he drinks the night before coaching his team. His personality is so narcissistic that 1 is not enough which was evident when he referenced "I have a couple of hookers up in my room" 2 hooker should have been enough tp satisfy Patches. However, just maybe it wasn't Patches that needed satisfying maybe the couple of hookers were paying him to get wrenched!
Vin Lananna has mastered one thing in this sport, selling himself with lies. Same script, different school. He was fired from Stanford and Oregon for his disgraceful tactics. Now UVA. Different logos, same storyline. At some point, “give me a few years” turns into a punchline. The podium talk never materializes, championships come and go, and the post-meet excuses pile up. Meanwhile, the sport evolves and he’s still running the same old playbook like it’s a decade ago. If you’re still selling the future in your 70s, it’s fair to ask whether the future ever actually arrive. I agree Vin Lananna is a legend in lying to almost everyone including the USATF!
Says the guy posting under a VPN. If you are going to trash a legend, at least do it under your own VPN so I can get an idea of who you are. Hell email me.
Testing to see if the name Sean Carlson is allowed to stay, unremoved. He belongs in any similar discussion, but all the removed posts make me curious if any negative mention of him is allowed to happen here or not.
Based on personal experience, he is motivated only by his own success, and pretty much anything and anyone is expendable to reach that.
Almost all of the negative posts refer to 4:30 miler

There was one post about Lananna. Who the f@ck cares so much! He’s known for everything said about him in that post, like him or not. You don’t have to agree, but why exaggerate?
