I'm not entirely sure, but I'm guessing he thinks they're being too buddy buddy and not going with 4 best who can run the race. I do think the big problem is they need a consistent group who have run together for years. Iirc, when Lyle had to withdraw, they didn't just swap him out, but moved the lineup around. That really doesn't help. 24+ years without a gold in the event they should dominate is long enough. They haven't made a change yet and other teams are having a much better time with fewer mistakes because of continuity. They maybe can learn a thing or two from the others. Other teams will make an occasional mistake, where ours is every Olympics.
