Anyone got a clue where he might be headed?

Weird, felt like Coach Fox was a good fit for him. A lot of athletes going to Roots recently... could be a good fit as he seems to be better suited to the roads. He might prefer a group less marathon focused though considering the situation he's leaving
Reebok was just acquired by Authentic Brands Group. That firm may be looking to turn Reebok into a price point focused lifestyle brand. Perhaps there are internal indications that Reebok is leaving the performance running and athlete sponsorship game?

I hope not. Actually really been enjoying their budget running shoes recently. Great lightweight daily trainers for a great price.

Sometimes people make moves for reasons other than running.
He's running Houston half right? Could see a new signing before that? Maybe adidas or ON?

Would love to see OAC.
Where did Rory Linkletter land? Has that been announced?
They're leading a shakeout together in Houston on Saturday. Perhaps they're headed to the same place?

No new sponsor and training with Ryan Hall in Flagstaff for Rory. I believe he said he likes Flagstaff and wants to stay there for the time being.
Rory is training under Ryan Hall in Flag. That seems like a reasonable landing place for Ben. I'm assuming it is a contractually thing now that I think about it. Hard to see him at OAC. Klecker's his closest comp distance wise and his training is much different than Fox's. Anyone remember who his agent is? Dan Lilot maybe?

Rory & Ben both work for the same company, Streamline Athletes.
Very Nice Track Club
Welcome home Ben.
Heard he's going back to Warhurst

Back? He was never coached by Ronnie.
I see him going to VNTC, reuniting with Ferlic and Willis. As for sponsorship, the VNTC guys seem to be cozy with Adidas so could help open doors for him with that company.
I know where he’s signing, don’t slide into my DMs
