The fact you are outraged that D1 level athletes are encouraged to maintain an optimal BMI says a lot as well.lmduck wrote:The fact you find the faux outrage more disturbing says a lot.karlhungis wrote:Very disturbing that the women claim they felt "devalued" by a data driven process focused on weight and BMI?

Exactly my point STU and clearly that context is lost on some here. There have been ‘whispers’ about this for a long time and it’s much more than the expectation that these athletes maintain a specified body weight or other specific measurements.StevensTechU wrote:Context matters. You don't treat youth athletes the same way you treat Olympians, and I think the one clear failing by the Oregon staff is forgetting that these women are somewhere in the between. There have been rumblings of poor coaching/treatment by the Oregon staff for a while, which has translated in the women's distance group dropping from elite to fringe top 25, which is crazy for Oregon.
