Kara Goucher: "Didn't happen to me, so it's fine, but if it did happen to me, you'd hear about it! Alot..."
Also, Lauren Fleshman hints at eating disorders amongst the CU team during her recruitment trip there in 2000-2001 in her book. But also praises Wetmore.
First the Matrix comes for the Top G, now they come for the OG? They can stay jealous of Wetmore because he is a TRUE MASTER, but no one is going to take the Alpha down!
A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person. Hearing from all the success story types isn't really helpful to paint a true picture of the program or the people running it. Kara's getting much (deserved) clap-back in the responses to her "rules for me and rules for thee" whataboutism post. Sorry, but her SM crusade is inappropriate, incredibly hypocritical, and honestly her bias is obvious in that she only supports whatever serves her narrow, present circumstances. Imagine if this investigation had happened right after she and Adam moved to Portland when Wetmore showed them the door, she would have sung a very different tune.
he's being accused of violating hipaa among other things. Honestly, the no one asked us bit rings hollow regardless of what anyone thinks of the accusers. The world just doesn't revolve around Kara.
Why would the experience of numerous athletes not have an impact on the judgement of Wetmore’s coaching practices?
Also to those who said top level athletes’ opinions shouldn’t count...I would expect to see more pressure to maintain a certain weight in this group. For every individual and team Champion Wetmore has its recognition and a cash bonus.
Seems to me if the people Wetmore was paid for(You don’t stay employed based on the depth of your B-team) reflect positive experiences then that’s a very important set of data points.
True, the world does not revolve around her but why is she the only one singled out? Not Emma or Slattery? They all wrote statements. Funny how she got thrashed but no one else is getting the same hate.

Completely fair. And Emma took the route of least resistance posting in her story and not on her page for comments. others posted it on their instagrams so you can read it here, if you didn't get a chance to.
Metivier's post informs us about the character of Mark Wetmore and, in combination with us, tells us of the kinds of actions he did take over many years, which is relevant to examining this particular set of accusations because we see that he made it his practice to deal in a healthy fashion with his athletes. It is not irrelevant.
