I mean isn't the NP coach Brosnan's wife

Lex and Leo are no long running for Newbury Park. If they run for a club, group, etc , then they can be coached by anyone. Even someone coaching a college program can coach them.

Yes, but the rumor was that the twins would forgo their CIF eligibility to compete for Brosnan as a club instead of a high school.

This would be a violation of NCAA rules.

There is a rule about a runner running for a club you coach if it's the closest option or something like that. Maybe he's not breaking any rules, but it's not a good look to be blatantly coaching high schoolers.

This stuff just rubs me the wrong way. These coaches are so egotistical. Must have your cake and eat it too. Takes the UCLA job but has to also keep coaching the best kids on the high school team.

The (lack of) effort put into hiding the name of who he’s coaching on that post just shows that he wants everyone to know he’s still coaching the Youngs because it’s not good enough that they run well, everyone needs to know it was all because of him.

These coaches who make it all about them are the worst. I feel bad for the kids.

Any way to see that without downloading the app? I tried picuki, but it doesn’t show up.

Not even Al Sal had his kid forgo his HS eligibility

this is false for division 1. this is a violation that carries a MASSIVE penalty and would result in the coach getting fired. recruits aren't allowed to practice with teams on official visits, what makes you think the coaches are allowed to give workouts to high school runners?

Then there is the obvious issue that they committed to Stanford meaning this is TAMPERING by Brosnan.

I found a way…it played some music saying “pass the good vibes around”.

Wonder whether Brosnan can go after Ellie Shea to build the program around her?

A college coach can coach a pro and even if he is coaching Lex and Leo they can do it especially if they are not running for their High School Newbury Park anymore

same thing as coaching a Pro

Ellie Shea is currently a Junior in high school laying down PR’s similar to KTuohy’s. Interesting you suggest Shea could go pro right out of high school with Brosnan coaching her. Maybe.

Remember when everyone said this would be a bad hire because there is a massive learning gap between NCAA rules and recruiting? This is the nail on the head. He deserves to get hit for this one. He obviously posted it to be arrogant there is no way he is that dumb that he did not realize he left parts of the name visible

The story has been deleted

No it has not. I see it right now

For some reason you have been posting a lot of negative things lately about Sean Brosnan even though you have no idea what you're talking about.

Brosnan asked for and received permission from the NCAA compliance person in UCLA's athletic department in December to coach Lex and Leo Young. So no NCAA violation took place.

Brosnan started coaching Lex and Leo shortly after NXN, replacing his wife who had been Lex and Leo's coach up to and including NXN. That information was posted on this message board back in December. This not NEW news.

Unlike many states there is NO winter track and field in California, so there hasn't been a high school team for them to be a part of anyway for the past two and a half months.

At the time Brosnan started coaching Lex and Leo it was originally only supposed to be from mid December until World u20 xc. Whether Brosnan was going to coach them in the spring or not was not going to be decided until after Lex and Leo returned from World u20 xc.

This true. You can actually coach a High School athlete as long as they are in your club. its really simple actually. This is for DI, DII, DIII

I think we all know college coaches that coach Pro athletes. Almost all the best ones do. Everyone is making a big deal about a post!?!?!?!?!? I

We don't know who the post is about. maybe it was from Sean Brosnan's wife to another athlete, maybe it was Sean to another athlete or maybe it was Leo or lex. What's the big deal. We have established the Young Twins are running outside their HS. Did you forget Leo is running the Sound Running 1500m - Pro field Saturday.

It's a positive athlete post, stop over thinking everything.

Thanks for clarifying Sean. Why not just post under your name? There is only one single person who would know all this detail. You’ve had a busy day defending yourself against the “haters” on all the threads.

This is absolutely wrong. There is no waiver or “permission slip” from compliance to get approval to coach a recruitable student athlete in Division I. Once they hit a certain age and become a recruitable prospect, you are no longer allowed to coach that athlete. Especially one who has committed to another university already!
