Just read the Riley McCusker lawsuit vs. Maggie Haney. It’s a lot to take in. Can’t imagine training under Maggie Haney. Or any other abusive coach. We’ve got to do better as a system to protect these athletes.

Glad people came forward about her treatment of gymnasts. It’s one thing to be strict or tough but she took it to another level which was abusive and demeaning to her athletes.

Maybe it’s just me, she always came across as a bitch. I heard things over the years but Laurie pulling the trigger and getting rid of her after the Olympics was a pretty big red flag since Laurie grew up with her. It’s all caught up with her.

Texas dreams is gonna be interesting moving forward as well. Although I find their biggest issue is they literally do not pace gymnasts correctly. They all peak at 14-15 then fall apart and are injury ridden after that. This has ruined a lot of talented elites and even some of the level 10 kids. Kim grew up in a era where kids were peak level at much younger ages, very different from current gymnastics field. She hasn’t adjusted to that which is why very few elites survive long enough to potentially make the Olympic team. Ragan smith was an exception.
