Don't leave us hanging without details. What happened? If anything...

Are all of them Salazar coached?

add

Jim Howarth

Marc Davis

Tommy Ansberry

Chris Katon

Todd Lewis

Shannon Lemora

some more: i'm not sure if steve ave (maybe michelle too?) was part of that group or not? they were kind of the originals right there. i often wonder whatever happened to Howarth...he got me a job at the nike employee store...heck of a nice guy. Tommy and Todd were about as cool as they come...actually saw Shannon years ago in scottsdale. small world.

Wasn't Rohatinsky coached briefly by Salazar?

And add Ahman Dirks, Julius something (African) from Adams State, Philemmon Hanneck.

Add Alvina Begay, Julus Achon, Josh Rohatinsky.

Pretty sure some will have been Magness (Areson, for example?). Also add in Ciaran O'Lionaird, very briefly.

What's NOP?

Mary Slaney.

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh.

Yes. He abruptly quit the sport soon afterwards.

Annette Peters

There is a story here.

excluding rupp and farah, who else has he had that has had success? ansberry won a national championship at 10k...dan brown made a couple of oly teams. though, the casualties seem to far outnumber the successes.

Ritz, Kara Goucher, and Adam Goucher all were successful.

Especially Ritz and Kara.

But WTF is he doing with Dorian Ulrey. Ulrey made the World team in 2009 and made it through multiple rounds. He's done absolutely nothing since. WTF

-WTF
