[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ilia’s arrogance did him in.[/quote]

Wasn't he heard saying after his performance waiting for his results that [b]only if they had let him go to Beijing in 2022, he would be on that podium? [/b][/quote]

How so?[/quote]

NP. Because, theoretically, he would have gotten his nerves and Olympic inexperience over with, and then his second games would have been fruitful. See also: Nathan Chen Olympics 1 vs. Nathan Chen Olympics 2.

It was a controversial decision at the time in 2022 to send Jason Brown instead of Ilia. That said, Jason Brown performed well and was decently ranked. It’s impossible to say what could have or would have happened. I love Jason Brown and was glad he was on the team in 2022; Ilia did not perform well at that Worlds just a few weeks later.

Anyway, I wish Ilia all the best and hope he continues to mature, as a person and as an athlete. I feel for him, to have skated so well to help USA win team gold and then to fall so short in the individual event. [/quote]
