Mentally, its often better to be the hunter than the hunted.
I don’t think it is a question of want. You can want it too much in gymnastics. Look how long it took Rory McIlroy to win the Masters. We need to...
Quite simply, UF needs to stick their landings. That has been the difference between them and LSU and Oklahoma. They are better than Oklahoma...
I believe the rotation is determined by a blind draw. All the top seeds start on floor across regions. I don’t know which is dumber — having...
Neither hit their dismounts. Beam scoring was tight for everyone.
Again this team is a few errors away. Leanne missing a leap connection on beam is maddening. I really wanted to beat Oklahoma. At least they...
It will be interesting to see how Oklahoma does in this pressure cooker before NCAAs. This will be a new experience for them. KJ does know how...
I believe the worst possible thing is to start on beam before you are warm, especially with a nervy beam team. I thought as the 3 seed UF would...
No. Her step parent.
Bet you didn’t know that Jade Carey’s father is married to former Gator gymnast Orley Szmuch!
I never understand the judging TBH. I’m sure the coach will clarify and no one really debated bc it was an exhibition. I think it was a close call...
Skye had a broken connection on her leap series which is probably what caused the large deduction. She is an exquisite beam worker with lots of...
My comments on scores from above: 1. The vault landings will come. Be patient. You don’t want to peak too early. Will be interesting to see if...
I agree with ET. UF is better than the field. Hopefully Harris is the alpha this team needs.
I think the deduction was because she missed her sissone element at the end of her first pass because she stumbled. Not for out of bounds.
When Sloane missed bars I told my friend “Sloane is going to kill it the rest of the meet.” That is her usual pattern. She always recovers strong.
Gymnastics is a unique sport. You can peak too early. The routines need to be paced so they peak in April. Bars will sort out. The rest was great.
Hezley has to be #1 elite in the next quad. Rest of Olympic team was much older. I doubt she ever enrolls. But with NIL who knows.
My take on the roster: 1. Even without the Blakelys and DiCello, there are 9 vaults with 10 start values. 2. The bars lineup could be superb....
Thank you for keeping this thread running! It is truly appreciated from afar!!!
