Leon Marchand & Bob Bowman FULL NCAA Team Champion Interview 

Bowman is the same proud dad than Popovich is with his players

you think he doesn't pay you can train a donkey but you won't make a racehorse out of him

yes, all four of them. Though technically RMC is Radio Monte Carlo and that's not France

@@sylvainguinepain5624 Nope, aside from the name RMC is technicallly a French media (TV and radio channels) owned by Altice Media (99.9% of the shares) recently bought by CMA CGM. The Principality of Monaco only owns 0.1% of the shares. But don't take my word for it and check it out by yourself. You're conflating RMC with the way lesser known Radio Monaco, owned by Gildo Pastor. De plus, à l'origine (1942) la société radio Monte Carlo n'était qu'une société-écran qui appartenait conjointement à Deutsche Auslands Rundfunk Gesellschaft Interradio, l'organisme nazi chargé de contrôler les radios à l'extérieur du Reich et l’Omnium français d’études et de participations (OFEPAR), créé spécialement avec l'aide de banques au tout début de 1942 pour gérer les intérêts français dans la société franco-allemande.

Our USA athletes have the same resources they just simply not training like him

He's not mooching off us resources, he's literally working for ASU. He is that program. Think of the resources and publicity the program gains because of this championship.

@@verward he will represent France in the Olympics.

@@verward true, student-athletes are the backbone of NCAA which is a cash machine. And even if swimming isn’t basketball or football (cash machine for the best school), his sole presence helped ASU to have a program which is a NCAA team champion, a great publicity stunt for the whole ASU athletic department. And they will probably brag about his potential Olympic medals on their website… to promote their winning culture and solid program to attract future prospect (in swimming…).

@@joshfriedel5999 If bowman was not in ASU, he would have probably gone somewhere else and so he gave more to his school than most athletes (foreign or US) do. Mooching off US resources (via ASU) isn’t so the right thing to say. A symbiotic relationship (where both parties help each other) will be closer to reality and imo ASU is even the one whose lucky. Don’t forget that Leon was already an Olympian and a national record holder before going to the US. And to be honest, about « mooching off of US resources » is a hard thing to say when you talk about US universities. US universities have gigantic tuitions and foreigners pays full tuitions for which they don’t get the same help for financing than US citizens (especially for public universities). So US universities are usually very happy to get foreign students, they usually make money with them. Foreigners are also a very large part of graduate student body, post-doc or faculty which the heart of all their research which allows them to call themselves « world best universities ». So, when we talk about US especially via their universities, saying that the US really knows how to attract foreign talents is more realistic than saying that some foreigners are « mooching off US resources ».
