What are you talking about 😂 he’s been running fast which is correct but he’s the 4th leg and everyone is in lane 1 so he’s running as much of a 400 as much as everyone else
@@n88te Look at the race again. He did most of his overthinking on the bends in what would have been lane 2 on a regular track thus running the extra meters.
He is going to be important to the growth of the sport in the US. I think he is that special. I am with Gatlin. It needs to be half and half. He is still going to want to be with his teammates. None of them are seniors. They are going to want another shot at the Jamaicans next year at Penn. If you take him away from high school completely, I think the sport loses but if you leave him half way, the younger track athletes coming up get exposed to him, all the endorsements that he already has. The Penn race should have been all over ESPN but there is probably some type of red tape preventing it unfortunately. I think this is the tip of the iceberg. We are in the middle of a generational talent ascending. He has been dominating since he was 8 years old at least. This is no fluke here. This is a special child.
Old head track administrators are the biggest obstacle for growing the sport. They can change a few rules quickly, and the fan base would grow quickly. A bigger fan base would lead to more money and more talent entering the sport, which would in turn lead to a bigger fan base, and so on.
Honestly, USA Track and Field need to have Bob Kersee as the country’s head coach for Olympics and World’s. The guy makes champions. We’d be better off with him as the National head coach.
Bro that’s the most intelligent response I’ve heard yet. I know Bobby kerse Sidney coach . I ran high school with some Olympians Dennis Mitchell John Drummond just to name a few. That’s exactly who his parents need to contact asap. I saw Q at 8 yrs old and knew he was special. He’s with a great HS coach right now but even he’s a lil confused because nobody wants to make a mistake with this kid
Ease him into a few races against pros so that he can build confidence, but also get used to what it is like to be on the big stage. Yes, protect him and let him grow into it.
Never thought I'd see the day when sprinters in high school would be running Olympic qualifying times in the 400M and 100M (Christian Miller ran the fastest time so far in 2024 @ 9.93). Can't wait to see how well these athletes do when they hit their peak.
I think Quincy knows his talent and knows he's going to age and get stronger, faster, and gain more experience. I think he need surrround himself with a Professional Coach, Teammates, sponsors.
Oh yeah? My son. Jackson Oliver, is 6th grader just turned 13, and according to Mile Split has among the top times all-time in the 1 mile, 1600m and 800m of Tennessee and among top of all-time.
The last short person I see so run well is. Christopher Brown of the Bahamas. I don’t mean to come with the negatives .. But his room for growth and increased stride length and frequency is very limited .
The last time there was a 400m phenom like this , was the Jamaican Christopher Taylor. There seemingly the same Stature with Christopher looking a little bit taller…and he himself didn’t improve that much after his initial burst into the scene . Quincy won’t get much taller; you can tell the length of his neck . He may take another second or so off but his stature isn’t built for 43.low (he doesn’t have the stride length or foot speed) He’s mostly strength and endurance based . Let me know if I’m wrong in the comments .
According to the USADA web site, he's never been tested yet, and there's all kinds of stuff to buy online. I wouldn't get too excited until he has to pass out-of-competition tests on a regular basis.
So he using drugs like bro let him be great ain’t no substance on this earth gon give him a boost enough to get him to run fast times like that. If it is there are many sprinters who would still be running. Stop being weird everybody don’t sit here and cheat
It’s sad that someone would even write this about a CHILD. Is this where we are as a society? We question the hard work and character of a CHILD rather than celebrate his accomplishments? He’s been breaking records since 8 years old. This ain’t nothin new. He’s also a straight A student at a prestigious independent private school. Should we question whether he cheats on his homework and tests too? Come on y’all. We’ve got to do better than this. Like for real.
@@joelee7935 I hope you're right. But unfortunately history, science, and game theory suggest a depressing picture of what is probably happening in youth sports.
44.3 with a running start not from the blokes 😂 smh always putting the pressure on you young athlete let him grow smh 🤦 just hope it doesn't get to his head
