I don't want to speculate or anything but could there be an ongoing investigation into the group right now?

You're so cool, dawg. Born in a country with great resources.
So much better than those turds born in places without those resources.
Lets keep those dick holes who chose to be born in other countries at a disadvantage so we can pummel them in a contest of how fast you can get your body around a 400 meter track.
This this this. Same with OAC and NAZ
Kudos to GDS. I'm sure that the whole situation has been complicated for a most of her time with BTC.
1. Shelby's delayed ban announcement.
2. Shelby's almost inclusion into a meet she was banned from competing in.
3. BTC coaching not knowing what drugs are banned?
4. Shelby's laughable defense.
5. BTC not distancing themselves from a banned athlete.
6. BTC defending banned athlete.
7. BTC still training banned athlete?
8. I'm sure that there is a lot more, but is kept behind closed doors.
GDS is on a similar trajectory as Shelby and being part of the same group causes whispers. Anyone with the ability to leave should.
This would be a dumb take even if national team meets were literally the only events on the calendar, rather than a small percentage. The shoe companies/teams obviously derive a benefit from foreign athletes too. By your logic Christian Pulisic should get booted from the Premier League. Why should the English league train and support an American; we’re even going to play each other at the World Cup this year!
I can't believe she is that naive. More likely, she read the full, damning CAS report.
Likely because the BTC won't put it behind them and too much SH action is happening behind the scenes, and in front of the scenes.
Good on her.
Now there is a thought. Let's hope they use RADA to raid the place and find her handler(s), like how they caught Lira doping Blessing.
BTC will be dissolved within the next 2 years. If Shalene has been working with Shelby she needs to be held accountable. And Jerry as well.
There’s a few post race videos, at least one from letsrun, this past indoor season where you can tell that she’s annoyed by Jerry’s micromanaging when it comes to race tactics and such. Not coming away with a medal from world indoors (when she was essentially a lock to medal) was probably the last straw.

If Jerry still won't do an interview with Letrun (after many requests according Gault and the Brojos) following this event, it's fairly obvious BTC does have more damaging stuff to hide. I don't know to what extent but it's got to be bad. Brojos or JG, have you already asked Jerry to interview or answer questions regarding this yet? He has to respond or BTC looks hella shady/guilty right now.
I hope GDS does an interview with LRC because LRC is the few media outlets that will ask tough questions.
And not Chris Chavez or FloTrack asking boring ass questions.
Her words are being twisted a bit, by the boards and also by Camille Herron. She never says she’s doing this bc she feels morally conflicted, she says it has been a huge distraction and stess which I think is very understandable. Any public person who has been in a professional relationship with someone who is publicly “cancelled” can relate. Annoying that Camille Herron who likely doesn’t even know her comments that she’s glad she’s putting her integrity first, if I was GDS that would annoy me after I had taken care to choose specific words to express the reasoning behind my decision. I also notice that while GDS liked almost all the comments by other runners on her post, commenting back to most of them, she did not even like Camille’s
No for real. She can't go to any of the Shelby simps. That takes out A LOT of "reporters"
Chavez
Strout
Melly
Crouse
Wade
It's really sad how many are willing to throw their reps on the line for this athlete. I'd say either letsrun or CSC. CSC could have done more to speak out but at least they said SOMETHING.
I mean... It's up to the athlete to run the race. If she didn't medal, thats on her, not a coach
