How does David Marsh get all these athletes to join his group, and then they get worse while training with him, while college boys and girls surpass them? How did he get appointed as womens coach for the US team?

    Based on the fact that he simply inherits fast swimmers and doesn't take them to the next level. He failed Cullen Jones badly. You mean... the same Cullen Jones that beat sprint phenom and the fastest 50 yard swimmer ever, gold medalist Caleb Dressel? In the same race in which 2 former 50 meter freestyle gold medalists took #1 and #2? Quick question: how many 50 freestylers have repeated Olympic gold? Should we blame Marsh for that as well? It's an accomplishment just to make the Olympics 2x in that event, which Jones did in '08 and '12. He almost made it a 3rd and beat extremely capable competition.
