We're still here. There are a few girls who would not be running in my program unless they gained some weight. Winning does not substitute the answer to the problem - which is anorexia. This disease will catch up with them eventually.

So you are saying that Jordan is more popular with the reporters than Lolo Jones. No chance. Lolo is the current Miss Track USA. At least until after the trials.
Jordan is pleasant and giggly like a young high schooler, and running with her tongue out is endearing to some people. While she seems like a very nice person, she does not come off like a grown-up college student. I can't imagine that even after a dental procedure, classier runners like Reid or Van Dalen would ever sound so annoyingly cutesy. At least Hasay says she now recognizes that she should stop crying when she loses, so that's progress toward adulthood.
Jordan Hasay indeed made a big mistake. But that mistake was not a tactical one on the track. Her big mistake was attending the University of Oregon. Its obvious now that Jordan Hasay would be running faster if she had gone to another school instead of Oregon. I have nothing against Oregon, but she needs to be the top billing at her school. Certain people can't share the spotlight. They need to be the one. Hasay needs more individual attention, and I know she isn't getting it. Good luck to Jordan in the future.
Coach Randy Thomas?
Pretty sure Jordan gets A TON of attention at Oregon and from Vin. She's fine there and the program is doing well for her. She's one of the most consistent runners in NCAA history (ALWAYS in the race with 200m to go), and will progress nicely and have a fine professional career.
Word is she chose Oregon over other options because it was one of the few schools on her list that allowed freshman to live off campus. She wanted to have an apartment where her mom could come stay with her often, to cook for her, etc.
yet she lives on campus...
She has an apartment literally right next to Hayward....
Wondering where are the douchebags who continually slam on Greg Metcalf after Flood and Goethals' performances in Des Moines?
=======================
Washington is a big program. They have as many scholarships to offer as does Oregon. Where are all the Washington scoring athletes? The entire Washington men's team scored ZERO points. I believe that only two athletes on the Washington women's team got points (Flood and Goethals). As a taxpayer and Husky fan, I cannot understand how Metcalf keeps his job. If I had results like this, you can bet I'd be fired.
