Source? Basically we're noting his lack of competition, the situation at UVA, and implying somebody somewhere gave a nod that our suspicions are accurate.

Let me tell you that it is indeed true. My friend talked to Robby on the phone a couple days back.

There are reasons with factual information that we will use anonymous sources and when we do protect their anonymity.
When we use anonymous source or sources we realize there is a higher bar with what we report. We stand by the story 100%. It is way beyond speculation or Andrews not competing indoors.
That's a shame. I knew some incoming UVA recruits who were looking forward to training with Robby.
UVA has made the announcement:

A coach leaving a program after a very short time is not uncommon at all. There are high school programs (albeit not xc/track) in my area that can't get a coach to stay any longer than two years. Many coaches today are all self-interest and no loyalty.

Are you dumb? If Robby goes pro who do you think he wants to train under? Oh i dont know maybe the guy that made him a 1:45 guy? So he didn't ruin Robby's life plus he is staying in school
Will Webb and Andrews cross-fertilize? Robby can help Webby with his speed, and Webb can help Andrews with this strength. Will be sweet if both make the Olympic Team!
Wow wow wow, about time!

If you're going to delete posts that point out you can't write, you should at least delete your own post which manifests the fact the most.

I lol'd. They can both fertilize each other to faster times. Did Vig think this us, if so he's an awesome and wonderful man with a cool score card.

Please take an English class.
Any English class!
Bobby Thompson would be proud to see Robby turn pro. My guess is he'll go with Johnny Gray.
It's good enough if the brojos provide timely information as done here. Leave their mangled English alone. There was a thread a few days ago saying that Andrews was gone because of a 15x400m cutdown workout. I don't know if that workout occurred or that was the reason but once again a letsrun thread about UVA scooped all the reporters. This could really help both Webb and Andrews if they can now train together without worrying about the NCAA limits.

Why would he go with Johnny Gray? There is a coach who has taken him to great success in the same town as he lives in, and Johnny Gray was a completely different type of 800 runner than Andrews is (front running vs sit-and-kicking).
This was the thread that discussed Andrews and that workout being the last straw.
Robbery Andrews kinda looks like Screech Powers
My guess is he'll go with Johnny Gray.
No shit
