    I heard that Oklahoma has the best recruiting class in men's NCAA history. No, I'm not making that up and it wasn't an Oklahoma person who said it.

    2025 National Games of China

    It seems there is some kind of feud between XRT fans and ZBH fans or somethig. I wish MAG in the USA could get people this worked up (or maybe I don't). The closest thing was probably me when I got furious at the 10,000 people who claimed Steven Legendre had no artistry.

    Japanese Men's Rhythmic

    Let's ask Fred Richard what he thinks.

    Re: Khoi - I heard that he was deciding whether or not to continue, so he didn't put in an injury petition for NT. As of a couple of months ago, he was reportedly still hanging out at Stanford. We should know more when NCAA starts up - like if he shows up as a volunteer assistant for Stanford...

    Japanese Men's Rhythmic

    The Japanese Rhythmic doesn't follow the FIG rules. I think the Spanish version does. The Spanish uniforms look a lot like the women's rhythmic uniforms. I think those would be a hard sell in the US!

    Chalked Up: Inside Elite Gymnastics' Merciless Coaching, Overzealous Parents, Eating Disorders, and Elusive Olympic Dreams

    I enjoyed the book, and it didn't give me the negative impressions that many others here had. However, I lost respect for her after her rants about COVID, vaccines, and trans issues. She's just hungry for attention and comes across as very nasty. She also exaggerated the crap out of the effects...

    I don't think USAG is purposefully ignoring Donnell. It's MAG, and USAG has a history of not caring about that as much as they should. No one could accuse them of ignoring Gabby Douglas or Simone Biles. If Donnell stays healthy and comes back on FX and VT, he could be an MVP for the USA. I...

    Judging Good YouTube channel breaking down scoring

    Which deductions would you quibble with (just for my learning). I assume this person got the same total as the judges. That was a pretty cool video. I've made some of these, and they are a lot of work.

    Chalked Up: Inside Elite Gymnastics' Merciless Coaching, Overzealous Parents, Eating Disorders, and Elusive Olympic Dreams

    This tracks. I think it explains how she shoved herself into the limelight with COVID and then trans issues. She has a driving need for attention and for the world to recognize her greatness.

    Kyle Albrecht named USAG President

    He played a non-revenue men's sport in college, so maybe he will have the incentive to help men's NCAA gymnastics

    Men 2026 Men's NCAA rule changes

    www.mensgymnasticsramblings.com/blog/3mvhjswx16jwbefunez7zyslmpex48 All the details are here. The biggest news is that the NCAA rules will now align with the FIG Code. Each element group requirement will now have to be D (as opposed to C as in 2025) to be awarded 0.5 by the D-Jury - except for...

    Warning about US WAG program.

    It wasn't just Simone; it was the Simone era, combined with a run of other exceptionally talented people, either prior to or concurrently, such as Raisman, Douglas, Maroney, and Lee. Before that there was Johnson and Liukin in the 2008 quad. It's partly due to chance this all lined up the way...
