Orin Richburg, if you are looking for the US relay coach. He took over for Dennis Mitchell in 2017.

Changed to Wallace Spearmon. Playing favs and terrible understanding of the relay process.
US Olympic relay team screwing up the baton pass is an ancient Olympic tradition. I don't blame the coach.
I think the dutch coach is Gert Koemans or something like that. Maybe Bram Van Klueivert.
The mistakes made last night were skills that they should have had down before they were pro. They were too focused on their individual events leading up and likely went through the motions in the few practices they had. I’m assuming they haven’t had many opportunities to run a relay since pre-covid. Anyways, it’s all on the team members.

How many coaches are you asking about?
No , it's on the incompetent coaching...Not having a set squad and practicing more. Juggling guys around, the Japanese have 4 guys that practice year round. I believe Orin Richburg is the culprit.

Plenty of blame for the runners AND the coaches.

If "Dutch Sprinter" is asking about the US, Head RelayCoach is Orin Richburg.
