Probably worth keeping an eye on both to validate the rumor.

As with a few others, he's planning an exodus back to Pete Julian's group when Salazar is cleared later in the year and they unveil the new branding with Salazar as Coach Emeritus. Am hearing it'll be Centro, Brazier, Murphy, Koko, Sifan, Kejelcha and a soon to be released big name if NCAA XC is cancelled.

that's not the case on Instagram?

The BTC website has some outdated info, like a very old 13:01 PR for Ahmed.

Who in NCAA XC do you consider a big name?

I never thought the BTC training would work out very well for Centro either.
Why??
They both have high volume and intensity.
That’s unfortunate because I thought him and Shelby were adorable together :(
Uh, no it didn't. Centro is used to winning medals. Time trialing a fast 5k is no substitute for a medal. A few weeks after his time trial he couldn't keep up with Cheruiyot and finished an uncompetitive 8th.

First off, you can never discount and or doubt an Olympic gold medalist. Matt has earned the right to chart his own path as he chooses. His support group is hands down the most solid in the sport of running. From his dad, his college coach Andy Powell, Alberto, and Jerry. He clearly has the mindset to run fast and win. That being said, it is concerning that he's had to bounce around a bit to find the right fit this late in his career. Not to mention he's had various bouts with injuries that have become worrisome and have prevented him from having an uninterrupted training block of time as of late. His talent is off the charts, from 800m to 5000m he's proven to be one of the greatest of all-time. IMHO, at the age of 30, I'd like to see him find the stability and consistency he needs to reach his full potential. As he gets older he doesn't need any distractions or still be searching for the "Perfect" situation to train and live in. His athletic window is closing and everything he does moving forward needs to be done with a clear mind and no doubts.
Good Luck Centro and keep it rollin'!!

Except he has bad habits, stays up all night and would not be a good match for anyone.
Veritas? Who would know best? :P
Centro is falling into the Alan Webb late-career pattern of revolving coaches, including being one of the few athletes coached by both Salazar and Schumacher.
She can do better than someone who's main hobby is playing video games at the age of 30 or 31, regardless of his past achievements.
Seems like despite some bright spots, he really became lost after his Olympic gold.
Centro's only bright spot since he won the Olympics was his 13 minute 5k. 2017 -- loses to Andrews; finishes last in his heat at the World Championships. 2019 -- loses to Engels; finishes 8th in the WC finals.
I agree. It's not enough that he has won two gold medals and is arguably one of the 5 greatest American runners in history. She can do better.

As i explained unlike years past he actually ran to WIN instead of getting a medal last year, doing all the work to try and bridge the gap to Cheruiyot and eventually reeling in kwemoi
Had he run to get 2nd or 3rd like 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015 I am sure he would have certainly finished better than 8th and most likely medaled.

someone on his insta asked if he was doing a TT and he responded with “if jerry let’s me”. i doubt he left
Well, I was being generous. He still made teams. He didn’t completely crash and burn like, say, Rudisha.
And to the person who lists all his running accomplishments as a reason to be with him, he can be good at his job and still be a b00b to date.
Yeeeeek they def did break up. Not following each other on insta anymore. That’s sad esp during a quarantine.
