Sounds like you know them very well. What doesn't make sense to about this comment is that they were very successful at Cal: finishing in the top 10 4 years in row. Now they take over a program that will need to be built up similarly as they did at Cal. I will say though that Clemson's...
Maybe they wanted to get out of the state of California. Maybe they didn't like some of the laws they have been passing there lately. California would be the absolute last state I'd want to raise children. And oh the cost of living there is ridiculous. People are leaving California in the...
An interesting thing about Naya Howard's transfer is that she only competed beam at the SECs and did not compete at all at the regionals. Makes me wonder if something other than injury is at play since she completed at least 2 events in every meet this year and in 3 meets even 3 events. She...
As a Georgia fan I so appreciate your comment. There were some that were cautioning me for being too optimistic about the Landi/Roberts co-head coaching "experiment". While I know that coaching college gymnastics is obviously different than club in many ways, there are also so many things...
The regular season has ended and UGA is in the top 10! Landi and Roberts have officially shown success despite the skeptics who told me that shooting for top 10 was too lofty a goal. I hope people now will give them credit where credit is due. Regardless of what happens in the post season...
Kupets results were not very good: 2018-17th, 2019-7th, 2020-10th, 2021-18th, 2022-28th, 2023-18th and 2024-20th. And I agree with you that if Kupets was producing teams ranking 6-10 after all the time she was given to succeed, UGA might still have let her go. You're right- the UGA athletic...
My optimistic outlook was never that UGA would be in contention for the national title. I was not one who thought Cecile would be a miracle worker but was hopeful that with the co-head coaching of Cecile and Ryan Georgia would improve to be in the top 10. At that time I was cautioned that this...
UGA should be ranked in the top 10 come Monday. Some naysayers on another thread said it would take 3-4 years for them to get to this point. Looks like the co-head coaches experiment may be working after all. They should also be ranked 5th or 6th in the hardest gymnastics conference in the...
