GYMTERNET NEWS

A mini bonus episode this week in which we discuss the latest urgent, somewhat crazy USAG developments that can't wait another moment!

• Thoughts on the Kerry Perry WE HAVE GREAT INSURANCE keynote from last week's episode (HOLLA Iowa Gym Nest!) and the part that...doesn't really add up?
• Tom Forster is the new High-Performance Team Coordinator for the US women
  • Who is Tom Forster?
  • Initial reactions to the announcement (like "phew" and "hrmm")
  • The positive tone he's attempting to strike
  • What the elite coaches think about the move
  • How does someone who has been involved with USAG for decades convince the public that he can make change?
• The changes we would like to see made to the camp system (they are many and extensive)
• Why aren't the 2008 Olympic teams getting the traditional 10-year reunion at nationals?
• The "Cowboy Hat Indictments" coming out of Texas
  • Nassar and van Horn are indicted
  • We revisit Debbie van Horn's role
