Third page and still no one has adequately explained how someone with "no time" is allowed to run in the trials. Plenty of people are sure of their opinions. No one presenting facts.
You lazy idiots, google usatf rule 8. How do you people ever get through life? Can't figure out the simplest things?

Want someone to spoon feed it to you? Open your mouth, here comes the airplane! Cute little baby, you might be adorable but you sure are stupid

“Gouchered in” - a Nike athlete gets into the USATF race without an actual qualifying mark. Also applies when USATF expands the originally listed field size to take a couple of additional athletes with provisional marks. (Chris Derrick, 2016 Olympic Trials)
Chris Derrick, 2021 Olympic Trials?

I think Ferlic or Bor can give him a run for his money. Maybe McGorty.
Wouldn’t be shocked to see him not qualify for the Olympics. If he was 100% he would have gotten the Standard Even if he took it easy and just barely dipped under. Having to get T3 and the standard at the trials (or by the end of June, I believe?) is a lot of pressure.
Actually, he needs to get the mark at the Trials. There is no period to "chase marks" this year. You must meet the Olympic standard either before or at the Trials.
I agree that the odds are for Ferlic, Bor, McGorty at this point. If Evan Jager was able he would have tried at least once to chase the standard. Leaving it to the day of reeks of desparation. In his defense, 8:22 is a way easier standard to hit than 3:35.00, 13:13.50, or 1:45.2
I predict 1st in 8:13 with an 8:04 later in the season
Heard it hear first. Jager done. Won't race trials.
