Nike Responds to Runner Mary Cain's Abuse Allegations | NBC New York

- Nike will investigate accusations of abuse by Mary Cain while she was part of Alberto Salazar's training group. The runner says it reached the point where she started having suicidal thoughts and cutting herself.
Cain joined the disbanded Nike Oregon Project run by Salazar in 2013, soon after competing in the 1,500-meter final at track and field's world championships when she was 17.
Now 23, Cain told The New York Times in a video essay that she joined Nike because she "wanted to be the best female athlete ever."
"Instead, I was emotionally and physically abused by a system designed by Alberto and endorsed by Nike," she said.
Nike said in a statement these are "deeply troubling allegations which have not been raised by Mary or her parents before. Mary was seeking to rejoin the Oregon Project and Alberto's team as recently as April of this year and had not raised these concerns as part of that process."
The sportswear giant added it will "take the allegations extremely seriously and will launch an immediate investigation to hear from former Oregon Project athletes."
They shouldn't let nike investigate there own problems. Someone else should not Nike
TexasBorn DeportCalifornians and that’s exactly the problem with cops getting away with things nowadays
TexasBorn DeportCalifornians AND THATS WHY COPS ARE GETTING A COUPLE OF YEARS IN JAIL FOR KILLING INNOCENTS
@TexasBorn DeportCalifornians "non-melaninated people" rofl
Uh if someone said your brother raped some chick you and/or your family would not investigate into it? would you let the accuser investigate into it? and then when court comes around you'll say "the accuser has all the evidence ...so just ask them all the questions"
Well they didn't really break any law or anything
Nike should not be 'firing back', they should be apologizing and reforming.
The news program said "firing back". It's thier catch phrase to start drama ..
It's sad how many women are having issues with Nike. Why isn't Nike becoming better?
Nike did nothing wrong. it was the coach.
@@TheSiameseDreamer I disagree, I feel like Nike should've known what was going on within their facilities. Just blaming the coach is the easy way out.
@@jenniferbates2811 he was trusted. But all things aside. The "anti male" bullshit they are pushing is ridiculous. It has nothing to do with men or women and having more women in charge wouldn't change a thing. It was the coach that lead the program. Countless Male-led programs globally work perfectly. This is just being used as an excuse to blame men.
She looks incredibly unhealthy in some of those runs, and looks much better in the interviews. There is definitely something to this.
No there isn't she has always looked anorexic look up for of her earlier races. This is some sort of odd victimizing because why would anyone want to go back after being abused. She said she still loved him and wanted closure that makes no sense sounds like she wants media coverage
@@bustin9938 ok but like how did she go from future track and field legend to where she is now. Like why would she lie about this, she's had media coverage already when she was a really good runner.
Justin Gamboa bro most people that face any type of abuse whether mental or physical almost always feel that it is their fault and not the abusers, thus why she went back to voice her concern but also trying to protect her image from being tarnished from people like you that think she is “victimizing” herself
@@bustin9938 that's a thing with abuse that she also said in her tweet: when someone constantly puts you down and scolds you, their approval, if given, feels so good you're willing to forget all of the bad things. That's one of the big things in emotional abuse and manipulation - you're manipulated into thinking your abuser's approval is the only thing that matters. It's not called attention seeking, it's called being a trauma victim and it can take a very long time to recover from the mindset that emotional abuse gives you
On another note, why are you so quick to disregard her? Would you have the same comment if a man came out with this story? Why is every woman who speaks openly about the abuse she's endured an "attention seeking liar"? Not only in sports but in media in general. Y'all are so quick to slap the words "attention seeking" on the article and are therefore part of the problem. Stop invalidating women. She has absolutely no reason to lie and her story is backed by medical proof. If you lose your period your bones become more brittle because of hormone imbalance and she broke 5 bones. And she's not the only one - I know a few similar stories from figure skating which is a very weight centered sport and in some training programs, your weight isn't allowed to fluctuate for more than 300g - ironically, most of the broken bones and stress fracture cases I know come from those programs.
Also I would advise you to not use "anorexic" to describe a skinny person bc anorexia comes in all shapes and sizes and a lot of people are denied the help they need because they don't look "anorexic enough" so you can imagine how harmful that can be
And she does look healthier in the earlier races, she's an athlete so yeah, she's slim, but you can very obviously notice the weight changes
Nina Pust FINALLY someone said it👏🏼👏🏼, people just don’t realize how serious mental health is
I believe in what she said cause her interview gave conclusions and recommendations about the Nike's program for women as well. I think she's not lying. She didn't actually gave damaging words to Nike, but revealed the Nike's harsh system towards women. She wanted to rebuild the women and men together in athletic career.
You can't fix greed. Nike cannot be changed, nor can corporations in general
Absolutely
Lol no she didn't idiot.
So she still loves him? She wanted back in!!
She's definitely not lying. All of her teammates at this defunct program back up her claims. Cain was also medically diagnosed with RED-S, a condition triggered when athletes take in too few calories to support rigorous aerobic training. This causes young women to stop having periods, which ultimately decreases the amount of estrogen in the body and results in the loss of bone density. It's because of RED-S that she didn't have her period for THREE YEARS and broke 5 different bones. And to the idiots using the fact that she tried to rejoin the team as evidence that she made this whole thing up, just put yourself in her shoes. Her whole life she aspired to go to the Olympics to represent the U.S. in track and field. She was widely believed to be a shoe-in to make the squad. Would you so easily give up on your lifelong dream of becoming an Olympian? Not only was this her lifelong goal, everyone expected/assumed she would make the Olympic team because of her raw talent.
You guys remember what happened at the university of Maryland back in may? Two male players died, because the coach wouldn't treat them right away, after they collapsed of heat stroke. Bad coaching is a systemic problem, All they care about are the millions of dollars from their contract, forget the players.
bishop51807 nope nobody remembers cause they were males
bishop51807 The NCAA are money loving pieces of shit who deserve to just die
@@Greenhead24 Nobody remembers because this sort of thing happens all too often, male or female.
@@Greenhead24 I remember. That's what I think about while I'm pushing myself. "know your limit". If you are pushing too hard you got to slow down no matter what the coach says. And she should have known this too, being a pro.
Well according to her this only happens to females.
Doesn't matter if she didn't bring it up before, she is bring it up now!!!!!!!!
What?
Whatever
Cole Weston what?
@@anthologyb3436 the reason she didnt bring it up earlier was because she didnt want to lose the massive paycheck she was receiving from Nike
@@coleweston6740 So its her problem if you take the money and you shut up than you should be quiet.
I quit supporting Nike a long time ago...after I noticed a huge turn in the quality of their shoes . I'm even more happy that I don't support them anymore
I found their shoes are just overpriced. 200+ CAD for an average pair of shoes, while Wal-Mart brand lasts nearly twice as long at less than 1/4 the price. Sure they don't look as nice, small sacrifice for better shoes.
consequences of moving factories from China to Vietnam and others. The same with Adidas.
I'm a Reebok woman
While I don't support them and their actions....their shoes are pretty damn good quality...been using a Nike Runner for 2 years no damage.
not just about quality shoes, it s all about commitment to the athletes
Coach: Lose more weight!
Mary: I'll die if I do. I can't
Coach: *_Just Do It™_* ✓
hahahaha you win dude.
You wrong for that😭😭😭
👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
lmfao
lol
When I see company saying “our first priority is safety” I roll my eyes.
Nike: These allegations are false!
Also Nike: Were going to open an investigation
P.s. we shut down the camp
They shut the whole camp down because they were giving drugs to their athletes. Not because of over training them
@@MikeBNumba6 uhh.... You do know what drugs are for in sports right? 💁🏼♂️🤔. The drugs are part of over training Mal practice for athletes. Do you understand that part? You need to do some research on the affects that drugs cause in a human body in regards to training. You must live under a rock
@@babysealclub11 yes I do know what drugs are for the sport. What are you even talking about?
Do I have to spell out PEDs?
MikeBNumba6 I think what the other guy means is that PEDs are just as bad and also show how shady their training methods are. Resorting to PEDs show how shitty their training tactics are, if they can give their runners drugs, then it wouldn’t be a surprise if they overworked some of their athletes aswell.
@@drinkmorewater3212 Keep on thinking that if it makes you feel better.
Meh, I can deal with never getting another Nike ever again.
Me too

Love Nike. All I buy. The air insoles help me walk farther and exercise longer. Nike for life! Literally.
New Balance on top
It’s sad that Nike is trying to fire back instead of consoling the poor lady. Just goes to show that their athletes are cattle to them.
they started a investigation
im gonna guess thats a good thing, because they are gonna find some dirt on the coaches especially Alberto Salazar
depends which ones
@@botcheek482 nike is launching an investigation just to protect themselves from getting sued i presume
Mary S
A Nike endorsement is a ticket out of poverty. It’s great. They can create any criteria they want
Mary S the cattle were happy to take fat pay checks from Nike though
All they’re going to do is rebrand and rename the project and let that man back in
“Because when we let people emotionally break us, we crave more than anything their very approval”
@Dale Doback don't be a unsympathetic cold hearted person. I'm happy for her for getting out of this and applaud her courage to speak out.
@Dale Doback Did you not watch this video? She literally told them that she felt like she was being abused during training, and they basically IGNORED her..
Dale Doback she probably signed a contact which bound her to the team & prevented her from speaking shit about it
@Dale Doback
"cause that's how they treat everyone, she wasnt being singled out"
That's...that's still bad. Super bad, even if that was true.
@Dale Doback
The system did the literal exact opposite. With no nutritionist, no sports psychologist, and few qualified personnel, this system wouldn't even create finalists.
Edit: the illegal weight loss methods too
Of course that’s Nike response. Don’t forget Allyson Felix just called them out this year. Nike has no sympathy whatsoever
Adidas is the way to go
They've had shoes made of plastic too. Adidas for the win
Kitty Cat and Brooks
NB is my thing.
Topo athletic. All other are garbage
Washington lets go new balance
The only way to make Nike pay for their mistake is not to give them your money. That's it, I'm burning all my Nike gear and never buying a Nike product ever.
'Because when we let people emotionally break us, we crave more than anything their approval'
That one hit home.
Boycott Nike gear and training and create a new direction. They only want the money.
All corporations only want money. That's by definition what they are.
Dumb comment
@Dale Doback lol
She was not "body shamed", her allegations are that the advice of her coaches put her health in jeoperdy and were not good for her career.
her allegations are that she was body shamed into unhealthily losing weight
She was body shamed go look at the mini documentary they did. She says that at one point it was the only thing she could about even during races - the number on the scale because she would get shouted and so violently by her coach frequently
This makes me so mad. Why aren't we protecting these girls? Nike also has used child labor in Indonesia. I don't know if they still do.
We knew something was wrong when she left abruptly from OP a couple of years ago. There was speculation that the abrupt departure and immediate radio silence that came from her camp probably had a lot to do with Salazar and the OP, along with the amount of injuries she endured which lead to her poor performances. She was a great athlete that was very talented at a young age, but too young at the time to go through much of that vigorous training volume and weight loss regimen Salazar implemented for her. Telling her she needed to be skinny was so demeaning, discouraging and downright disrespectful to Mary Cain and certainly wasn’t considered as best practices to suit Cain’s overall future performances.
She lost too much weight, her menstrual cycle was out of whack. And broke 5 bones including having stress fractures in her feet. She went from potential legend to immediate track town drop out under Salazar’s coaching.
I wonder how this system can be fixed, how young female athletes can be treated appropriately to help achieve their potential without the dangers they’re exposed to under sports specific vigorous training systems. Nike needs to be held extremely accountable for allowing this and supporting this type of behavior from such a sociopath in Salazar for years.
Nike: “Values”
You mean monetary values?
i believe her. now nike needs to address this with more empathy and a genuine response. anyone who has played sports on a competitive level understands how it can be hard on your mental health
The next time I buy sneakers my first choice is not going to be Nike.
Saucony rocks
I believe these women and will not be buying Nike products.
Victim: Nike I don't like how you and your staff are treating and training me.
Nike: Just Do It!
Thank you for coming forward, Mary! And to all the other women who have too. You're doing the grueling work to make premiere athletics, and our world at large, a safe place for women to grow and be great.
Abusers need to be held accountable!
*"LOST HER PERIOD FOR THREE YEARS"* WTF?!
Female bodies are designed for creation, not for combat
@@tijan8948 I agree
@@tijan8948 Shut up
Tijan *not starvation
Why is that surprising? Happens to a lot of women who are active.
It’s just heartbreaking see athletes wasted their talents by bad coaches and I can’t imagine the frustration they felt knowing they are good and then racing and do poorly, no one absolutely no one should play with the dreams of an athlete and their running goals
Had to choose between nike or new balance last week and I'm glad I chose New balance
I'd still make fun of you in school,
@@sdeshaun12 well I'm home schooled
Heen bruh there is such a big gap between those lol. There’s adidas, there’s tons of smaller running shoe brands, etc
@@RiceCubeTech that was my only options since the mall I was in only has limited brands
Heen there’s nothing wrong with choosing new balance those other people are just assholes
Having grown up in Oregon and I know (a couple of good) people who have worked at Nike for years, I believe every word of the athletes. The culture of the Portland Metropolitan and suburban areas, including Nike HQ, is extremely toxic. And in Oregon it is legal through all nine months of pregnancy to get an abortion. A woman could even be in labor, 41 weeks pregnant, totally healthy for both mother and baby, and she could still decide while in labor to abort her baby and it's legal.
Cultures like that, where people don't bat an eye to abort a baby at any time, tend to think of people--especially children, as disposable. Because people are disposable to the company, they treat their athletes and other "employees" however they want to and feel no remorse.
She’s telling the truth. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
IF YOU CANT HANDLE THE PRESSURE AND COMPETITION OF BEING AN ATHLETE AND DOING WHAT IT TAKES AT A HIGH LEVEL THEN DONT BECOME ONE. DONT BLAME IT ON THE FACT YOUR A WOMAN OR THAT ITS A TOXIC CULTURE, THE SAME PRESSURES CAN BE PUT ON MEN
No wonder my running time was damaged after using Nike's shoes

Green Giant They aren’t, they are competing between women, where did youget the idea they’re trying to be men? Running isn’t sexist
I will never buy nike products again
Disgusting
World class long distance running is tough stuff, and the East Africans that dominate it are very thin and naturally more adept at it. I'm actually not surprised that the training to make Americans competitive is this taxing. But I guess the third world athletes are more worried about putting food on the table.
The Micheal Jordan of track is a bit of a stretch 😒😒😒
Definitely a stretch to call a high school athlete the "Michael Jordan" of her sport. By the way the current WR holder is an East African, and I didnt even have to google that to know
Good to see people agreeing that men and women are different! Believe in equity not equality.
Nike was accused of abuse, so Nike investigated Nike and found that Nike had done nothing wrong...
😂
Take a look at the men’s distance runners... they are very very thin. It’s not a matter of sexism or body shaming, just trying to improve performance. Look at Salazar’s other athletes that he trains... mo Farah for example just broke a world record. Salazar knows what he’s doing
This girl is such a liar! Lol? She wanted to rejoin the team that "abused" her just so they could apologize... BS
Stop buying there ridiculously marked up merchandise, and that'll fix there problem
Just look at her body tells the answer how much she suffered at this abused project... 😢😢😢
And she isnt even that lean for a distance runner! Real elite professional distant runners look MUCH more skinny then that many of which almost looking anorexic. (Not in unhealthy way tho) many of the Kenyan runners are good examples
Ok you got ur point... still, look again to see the difference
This is for Men and Women!
Weight affects endurance athletes.
Men also suffer from low test from endurance sports.
Even outside of endurance sports Male athletes are pressured about weight. It’s even in some contracts in the NFL.
If she didn’t want to worry about weight, go throw the shot put. It’s foolish and naive to think that in her discipline weight is not a huge factor.
If you want to be best in the world you have to make sacrifices. You have to put your body through hell. Ask any champion! It isn’t given, it earned by doing what others see as impossible day after day.
If you can’t and won’t make these sacrifices, then quit! Walk away! Go do something that is easy!
No one forced this girl to cut herself, she did that! She could have left, but she wanted to be the best, just didn’t have what it takes. Now it’s someone’s else fault?
Guaranteed if she did have success and still have these issues we won’t hear her complaining. The issues would be referred to as sacrifices. But because she failed, sacrifices now becomes issues.
If I recall correctly they don't have a good system for women who want to start a family.
There are 2 simple solutions to this problem,#1 Fire the coaches,#2 Boycott Nike.
Can someone ask Colin kapernick what exactly nike supports him for again? I think he forgot what he was fighting for in the first place
lilahdog 568 doubt he does considering he was willing to loose his job to stand for racial injustice. The money he gets from Nike probably goes into his project. Don’t play yourself.
He was fighting against and protesting police violence against blacks and poor. I can send several thousand videos your way if you don't know what I'm talking about
Then it makes kolin a sellout. He would stand with and support a company that, at least in this case; didnt support and in fact may have abused a fellow "female athlete" yeah hes a saint. Fighting for inequality just not if your a female in sports right?
This is good, i'm glad nike is taking these accusations seriously, and is investigating to ultimately take corrective action.
"The allegations had not been raised before, either by her or her parents... " ??? Just look at her! Or her wrists! Not one person at Nike did this?
Lawrence Noronha she clearly states in one of her interviews that she brought up that she was cutting her wrists to Alberto Salazar and he acted like it was no big deal.
You can't bring it up to the coach, thats just being dumb and stupid
JustinTime YOUR stupid so your telling not to tell your coach that the system is making you suicidal, it’s better to tell the coach
I hate nike now.never going to buy nike im shifting to Adidas.
Nike should be banned for so many reasons. I haven't bought Nike in 10 yrs.
Who is calling this girl the Michael Jordan of anything? I just looked at her world championships and she has zero. She got smoked in both US Olympic trials she competed in. Not saying her story is untrue, but why make up that she's better than she is to tell her story?
To fit the men=bad narrative.
Yet everyone buys Nike products. Don’t understand that logic
Shes a lieing pig
Uhhh duhhh
@@Trrippy_Shades why did Nike end the Oregon project then ?
Crazy when I see these videos form 3 years ago and realize that Nike has done absolutely nothing to change... and they never will unless people stop buying their crap.
Lol so it looks like its a case of sour grapes
I was in the store the other day shopping for socks. I came across Nike socks and although they were nice I put them back because I remember how Nike is. That’s how you send a message to companies you don’t agree with. Pretty simple.
Nike should be ashamed of themselves...no more buying Nike from me ....Adidas is popular now anyway
Who referred to her as the Michael Jordan of Track & Field is what I want to know.
I’m done supporting Nike, this is horrible
Ok boomer
Whatever
So Nike is all about the money hey?
Well why didnt this woman bring up her grievances earlier and leave Nike?
Oh wait, she probably didnt want to lose her huge paycheck. I understand now.
Sour grapes dearest Mary. You had many other issues like cutting. Or are you going to blame that on Nike too?
Joins super elite team, complains that there are super intense requirements
Why didn't she just quit the team when it got to the point where self injury seemed like a good option??
can't image why Nike's public relations people would say anything different.
after all its what they're paid to do.
What else can you expect from a company that employs small children to make cheap shoes in sweatshops
Take responsibility for your own actions
When I see allegations it peaks my interest. When I see information before any cross examination from the news or people claiming to be victims I wonder about the truth.
Speaking Truth I agree with you there. I did notice her slim frame.
This is why runners should join New Balance💯.
Ja'Mari Newell 😂 imagine wearing nb
@@MalakhiW Put some respect on NB's name. Nike has worthy competitors. NB's brand stock rose big time when they made Kawhi Leonard the face of their basketball line, plus it's been sponsoring several running organizations for a few decades. Kinda similar to how Steph Curry gave Under Armour major brand recognition when he was the face of the brand during his MVP years.
Jayden Dash Doesn’t matter, Nike will always be the bigger and better brand
Why is Nike firing back? That's just stupid. All Mary wants is an apology and a reform. This is how already corrupt companies lose more people. Just because she wants to go back to the project does not mean she actually likes it. Body shaming was and still is harmful to people.
As a former competitive runner, no one forces you to do this. It always goes back to ones competitive nature, to be better than the rest. Nike just so happens to exploit this. As long as there are athletes they will keep exploiting , including children, be it child labor or athletes. Keep buying and this will never end.
And this is why I vowed to never buy another product from Nike again
"By and for men" ... was apart of a million dollar sponsored women's track and field team. The political run off is rancid. Ruins a good story.
Jonathan she’s talking about the training program itself is more tuned for male athletes rather than accounting for the differences between males and females it trains females the same way as male
@@passamaquede8261 How long does a a female Olympic sport, and team have to be around for it to be made for females? Literally have to redefine the act of running for it to be "by" women. More or less its a never ending victim complex rather than bad people getting punished.
Jonathan it’s not the running itself it’s the training there are obvious biological difference between males and females, a male can have a lower body fat than a female and be ok super low body fat on a female messes up their hormone production, like I said these people weren’t clear on the differences between males and female and there were no physicians there to tell them otherwise
Jonathan you don't get it mate, women and men are biologically different, so their training and preparation for any sport should be approached differently. it's not about politics it's literally about biology and how it relates to sports science. maybe take your head out of your arse for a minute.
@@evanhubbard146 Its 2019, not 1940. He was an abusive couch and bad example, but to blame the couching of women in general as "by and for men" which is causing abuse and weight cutting is absurd. This is one young persons first experience in the life of a Olympic athlete and her parents failed her by not vetting this properly. Alot of people failed her but she also was conscious of her decisions everyday and had ability to speak out about this sooner. Much like other sports, pride and competitive drive can led to bad outcomes.
You know how bad it is for a woman’s periods to just stop ? Like that doesn’t just happen it takes some type of trauma to your body whatever diet they had her on combined with a workout routine if she didn’t leave the long term effects could of been much worse
Nike designs shoes and I always thought they were more of a style brand...
A four year ban - absolutely no big deal to Alberto. He will go play with his money for four years. Admit that he "pushed boundaries" and will resume right where he left off (this time with a new Nike CEO). Any coach that is caught pushing PEDS should be banned for life. What about some sort of financial penalties for Nike or the organizing body of running?
Designed by men for men, wait is it for men though? Wouldn't it be a problem if guys we're to lose weight on purpose as well
itsmecooperyt well an important thing that she brought up in another video is that losing weight in the unhealthy manner that she was affected her period which stopped for a few years. When women lose their period, it affects their bone density. During her training she broke numerous bones along with other health consequences she faced. So yes, while it’s unhealthy for anyone to lose weight on purpose like that, the program was still designed by men which meant they were unable to account for the biological differences versus men and women.
@@orca4975 thanks mate

I believe her. She went there to be a champion, they trained her to be a champion, but the their methods were not a fit. A case of malpractice.

Casey Darwin 1000s of athletes happy with Nike too
@@aussies_are_white0057 and? whats your point, this is about the Oregon Project bud...
Nike has work to do in the way they treat their star athletes. That said, I wonder how many of the athletes in the program were truly unhappy. The question should be, what is the responsibility of sponsors and organizations to ensure the mental health of their athletes? These programs are designed to weed out the weakest link. We're talking about training to be the best of the best.
Training to be the best in the world is not fair, kind, or comforting. "The best girl runner in America" means nothing past age 16 or 17 because of physiological changes.
Salazar was working on the edge of human limits. Not defending him, but best the No. 1 human in your discipline requires sacrifice and otherwise talented/gifted people will fail.
It sounds like Nike and its athletic programs need to enhance their information sharing, athlete accountability, and support programs. But fundamentally, they don't seem to have done anything wrong. It's just that they can do more.
The fights against Nike are stacking up. This just piles on to the claims that they didn’t support female athletes who were pregnant.
Why anyone's surprise? You expect a corporation to be ethical. You are the problem!!
Can't she get some help when this was happening?
Boycott Nike, they won’t even take responsibility for their shady business
Can't help but wonder how this story is being pushed to help the political scene in some way.
Wait that's a woman? You don't fool me. Men have been competing in women's sports for a long time. We are just starting to see it now
Adidas over Nike anyday
How do companies like this get away with abuse ?
This is so misleading to me.
What nike dont support women , are you kidding me .
Last time i saw , nike made special hijab for women athlete how can nike be against women .
Nike is empowering women isn't it?
Chasing labels will literally have you disabled.,
Did Nike provide any statement regarding the issue of not having any professional nutritionist, psychologist, physician, etc. as part of the project?
“Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything. Just do it.”....did she not get the memo?
Her records after she joined Nike is way WORSE than before she joined Nike. After she got into Nike, she got the last place.
Stefan Holt is on NBC New York? I was wondering where he went as I have not seen him on NBC Chicago in quite a while. By the way, this story will not deter from wearing Nike. Those Vaporfly 4%s helped me run a marathon PR of 2:53 in Rotterdam. And, I love wearing my PG2s on the basketball court.
why does Salazar = nike?? sure he's sponsored but that's one coach out of thousands
Because he was the head coach and basically the face of nike's entire running and coaching program, the oregon project.
@@thlover27 this wasn't a huge program this was a small elitist club. It was never stated that he followed Nikes instructions or used nikes training program. He brought his own out dated approach. How he got the job idk. Unless there is a proven chain of communication you can't just associate the entire company due to the actions of one man and his staff. Like yes it's a bad look for the company but it's not a reflection of there ideology unless clearly proven
