Idiotic post.
If you're going to criticize, learn your history. Rupp rarely raced the 15/mile in college. Sal started having him work on it indoors post-college when it became clear Rupp was going to get outkicked in every race of his pro career. His progression was steady and anything but questionable. 4:00 just under, getting a little faster every year. He ran 4:01 in HS. It took several seasons of work to get to 3:50.

That's 10 seconds over 8 YEARS.
Yes, he's willing to do every LEGAL thing. This is hardly evidence of PEDs.
AW as in Alan Webb? What about him? Slaney is a red herring. She was crazy enough to dope on her own. It doesn't look good for AlSal, but her personality and the fact that you have to dig back 20 years to find this isn't exactly a strong argument that Sal is dirty too.
Silence? Don't you think silence is evidence that NOTHING dirty is going on? You really think that Magness would keep his mouth shut? He has nothing to lose. The resounding silence of Sal's ex-athletes is what makes me believe Rupp is clean.
