Yeah, I know it sounds ignorant, but I've gotta say that I wouldn't be too bummed about any of the NOP guys except for Jager. He's such a great character and hard to imagine such a happy guy doping. I like to tell myself that the sport isn't ruined based on Evan Jager's performances alone, and in a weird way it sort of works.

I'd be shocked if Kenny G tested positive.

What's worse than Justin Gatlin, Tyson Gay and Marion Jones testing positive?
Interestingly , Marion Jones never tested positive but had to give up her medals because of her drug inquiry while Gay and Gatling both have positive tests and got to keep their World and Olympic medals.

Have no opinion on Cain or Salazar. But if you wanted to beat blood profile testing and analysis later on wouldn't high school be the best time to start? Achieve ideal just at limit hematocrit/ test/ hgh, etc levels through doping while not subject to routine outside testing.
Then smart micro dosing later on will still match your "natural" blood profile taken at beginning of wc career?
Plenty of high schoolers in other sports (football mainly) manage to get a hold of steroids and use them to their advantage. When I was in hs, there were a lot of steroid rumors concerning a champion sprinter in my state. He was a super nice guy but his appearance, injury history and flatline performance in college seem to be consistent with the rumors. I don't think distance runners are any more ethical than sprinters or football players so I would imagine some successful hs distance runner has helped himself out.
Again not accusing any particular hs track athlete or coach of doping. Just pointing out it is far from out of the question.
