Rachel Schneider has left, Emily Durgin is going to Adidas, other athletes looking for exists. UA + Stephen Haas are both not working out.

With Rachel and Emily Durgan gone, the last remaining top talent is probably Weini Kelati, it should be very easy for her to find another sponsor, but would not be surprised if Under Armor is paying her big bucks to be the brands ace distance athlete.
I also noticed their Instagram page, which was VERY active at one point, has not posted since May, which is strange considering many high profile races have since happened.
Cheserek went back to Kenya right?
Kelati ruined her marketability at the Trials. Such an effort seemed to have been made to get her citizenship done in time and then she drops out and a girl she used to own in college (Alicia Monson) ends up with the 3rd spot and making Tokyo. I have no clue why a brand would want to work with the Haas group. Probably the worst results of any coach-agent at the Trials.

This post was removed.
That is a good point! Her best performances have been directly post college. She has been on a downwards spiral since.
Where is Emily Durgin going? She appears to be on an upward trajectory and fitness. She had a good race at Peachtree.
Pat Casey had an Instagram post that seemed almost like he was retiring and Stephen Scullion just pulled out do the Olympic due to mental health issues

That’s great! He can spend more time making snarky, critical posts of others.

Shayla Houlihan is one of the coaches, did she have success as a coach before she was hired for Dark Sky?
Rachel Schneider was never actually a part of Dark Sky. Haas just pretended she was for street cred.
Hey Diego, is the Terrence Mahon group based out of SDiego an Adidas Group, or other?

She coached at Cal Berkely before that. So no! :)

Casey.
Scullion was just the OG hypocrite. Takes UA’s money while running in disguised Vaporflys.
What happened to Scullion?
They are an Adidas group.

Tweeted today he was pulling out because of mental health issues.
https://twitter.com/scullion262/status/1413890228490694659Before today (maybe yesterday) training in Flagstaff appeared to be going well.
Haas group and The Cragg group are both cheating athletes.
They are agents that do not shop their athletes because they want them for their own groups. Kelati and Werner have no idea of their worth. They only know what they’ve been told by Men with motives not in the best interest of the athlete.
