A full second behind Merritt? Dang. I bet he wishes he still had Coach Hart on payroll...

I am pi$$ed it broke the streak of Baylor owning the 400m gold medal since 1996.

I guess the lack of endorsement deals that will shift from Wariner to Merritt was worth the extra 50k in coaching costs, eh?

Is Jeremy in the 4x400 relay? I would imagine so...

I leaked the Shawn Johnson gold medal, LOL. Sanya Richards gassed out on her last 200. For real I was going to watch it tonight. Maybe Clyde Hart is saying to himself I told you so Jeremy.

Tommie, you might want to spoiler alert your thread title and move the medal into the post itself just so people who don't want to know don't accidentally run into this. Just ask Trey. ;)

LOL Babe Trey told everyone to quit crying after reading his thread. I thought it was kind of funny.

Wariner was less than classy during his after race interview.

Of course he didn't want to admit he *****ed up by getting rid of Clyde Hart.

Sanya gassed in her 400 too. Jeremy getting blown away is Hart's fault, but Sanya getting blown away isn't?

Yeah it sucks that he left Hart over money, but I don't know if that was the reason he lost. Merritt was just better.

Yep. That was totally uncessary. Companies don't want to associate with that type of attitude.

He should take a lesson from Shawn Johnson when she lost to Nastia or Lolo Jones. You got beat, be a man and and answer the questions from the press.

I think the fact that he hasn't lost a race by that big of a margin is what stands out. True indeed Merritt ran the 5th fastest time ever in the 400m but Jeremy is simply not supposed to get beat by a full second.

He regressed from last year 43.4 to 44.7. That's really a bad showing from the defending world champ and gold medalist.

So I guess Clyde Hart is worth 50k a second... Nice.

I feel bad for him, because the coaching change probably cost him more than he wants to admit, but at the same time Sanya's performance was lackluster as Hart's only runner in the games (that I know of).
