Can we stop the nonsense about Grant going to Bain or any other sponsor before the 2024 Olympics? No way he's not still under Nike deal through the Olympics.
He’s going to Bain. I’ve seen him at the Eugene Starbucks practicing PowerPoint hotkeys.
Spain would be interesting with Katir and Thierry N. Granted, I have no idea how Grant's Espanol is and whether that group is looking to add anyone. Jakob's group? Fun to think about, but I'm not sure there is much openness to it.
Europe-wise, could go to Paris and train with the Jimmy Gressier / Mike Foppen group
evrryine mentions cranny and Schweizer but no one seems to be mentioning Frerichs, the one who’s actually won some medals… does she stay?
I bet she goes as well. After all the injuries and no longer a specific steeple coach around, it’s time for a change. Jager and Ahmed will likely turn out the light to Bowerman post Paris.
Too often, sea level individuals past age 25 moving to higher elevation suffer injuries at a greater risk than if they remained at or near sea level. Works out okay for college age individuals.

somebody said bowerman spends 6 months at altitude already. true or false?
I'd see Ritz's group with On as the best fit for Grant in the United States, with Mike Smith's group, his old teammate, Woody Kincaid, and top guys in Nur and Grijalva as second. It would be cool to see an American get out to the top groups in the world in Ethiopia or Kenya, though.
He’s moving to Park City. Think he’s not joining a group but not 100% sure on that. Not sure on coach other than it isn’t Mike Smith
This is what I've heard.
Again, if he needs me to coach him, I guarantee 100% I'll coach him to at least the same number of US 10,000 titles and WC medals as he won as a member of the BTC.

Is this statement a joke or arrogance?
It's a joke, because grant has 0 of the above medals. Using that as the criteria literally anyone can maintain the "success" of grant at BTC
