I have always admired his honesty and how open he is about his athletes.
Yea Mr Francis is so honest and intelligent.
You can always count on Stephen for a terse professional unfiltered conversation! One of the BEST to EVER do it 👏🏾
Yes iyah! Take it or leave it!
I just love Kishane's physique and form...O God keep him free from injuries
Kishane is a big man, with a massive upper body. This may be one of the contributing factors to his shin injures, and injury prone tendency. Coach Francis alluded to him sometimes having weight problems. If he could slim down by 15 to 20 pounds, this would translate to much less stress on his legs, and perhaps becoming less injury prone. I think that if he could really commit to this, along with a dietitian, next year he could be a World champion.
@@hotrock388, You hit the nail on the head with your take on Kishane Thompson! Needs to slim down, or he might become another Yohan Blake!
Amen
A word to the wise is sufficient. Mr Francis is the professional who has tried, tested and proven his methods and the results are there for everyone to make qualified decisions
Always impressed with Stephen Francis. Has to be one of the world's best coaches. Like listening to an Oracle!
You have some people who knows very little and think they know a lot but don't know enough to know that they don't know nothing
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Shhhh GURU is speaking
alrite ..... not dog bark
😂😂😂
Especially when they think they have it on paper 📃
This is how intelligence counters ego
Say it for the people in the back, no, as a matter of fact say it for the JAAA'S😂😂😂😂
@@colleyslimmaz4502 Franno a bright boy from school days.
This is exactly how I feel.
No back and forth, just useful insights.
MVP = 50+ Global Medals for JA without ANY help from JAAA's. Nuff said!
Yep. JA athletic management bodies do nothing for Jamaican athletes . They just collect big pay
Helloooo plus world records and championship records lol
@@trudykroll7429 Oh....yes....Dat to 😆
Who seh Franno fi IOC presi?
130 medals
A man who speaks his mind and make sense. Mr Riley straight up stick to the theory and let the coaches do the practical .
Franno's smiling at the beginning.
Franno never smiles. Be afraid World.
Kayon Rayon is such an excellent interviewer.
steven francis , criag butler, reneto adams. these people serve their people and the admin bobies in jamaica keep getting in their way. these men with the big egoes will not leave the position alone. no matter how much they fail to serve the people ,they stay. Jff, JAAA, JCF. them not leaving.
So brutally truthful. Straight❤
Excellent interview. It’s a privilege to hear from Sir. Francis and learn from his vast wisdom.
Appreciate this man so much. Classy in his response.
ditto Missa Francis. Speaks like the professional you are.
Seet deh
Mr frances is the only man I see says less and give the most insightful information we Need without giving away information others need love it the others should look and learn.
No doubt!!
I have so much admiration for this man. He makes so much sense. Thank you, Stephen Francis. Please take care of yourself, Jamaica needs you.
Wouldn't mind if the athletes who left college overseas came back to be guided by this man or Mr.Millls.
THIS ONE IS A GAME CHANGER
This man is so smart.
Speak like a true professional
Very good interview. The usual frank assessment from Franno, which I believe should always be taken seriously.
I think his forwardness is what people can’t take. His criticisms always come with a solution (which always seems viable. ). If we agree with his solutions is another thing.
WOW THIS IS DEEP
Coach Francis has demonstrated, over the past 2 decades, that the proof of the pudding is in the eating! Think about that for a moment. If MVP did not exist, there is a very good chance that we may have gotten many less medals, and we would not have heard about many of the stars that are household names today. Remember, prior to Asafa Powell breaking out in the early 2000's, Jamaican stars mostly came out of the brutal American College system. The tough ones made it, DQ, Merline Ottey, VCB to name a few, but the majority do not go on to senior success. Just look at the record of our highschool stars that have gone through the system and had no serious success as seniors. What many dont understand is that elite runners are not normal human beings, they are eceptional human beings. As such, they cannot be treated like a high schooler, or cllege athlete. They are like Formula 1 racing cars, the absolute best and fastest there are. Hence, th advice of the people like Coaches Francis and Mills, who have had by far the majority of medals, and world records for Jamaica, should be listened to, and action taken based on this advise. Anything else is madness!
If mvp never existed the 130 medals their athletes won would not exist, jamaica would not exist in track and field dominance. Usain bolt would not exist because puma would not believe in him or a country with little success and he would not be sponsored with condition.
Finally all the shoe companies in the world would not be here investing in the coaches and their programmes wanting control of the champions out of jamaica.
I HEREBY ON BEHALF OF JAMAICAN TRACK AND FIELD FANS NOMINATE STEVEN FRANCIS FOR AN AWARD TO BE NAMED HIGHER THAN OD.
Congratulations Mr Francis. Jamaican track fans have fun and enjoy your day.
Jaydon coaches the big man franno just gave you a gift.
Him se jaydon need to be able to jump as good on 4 5 6 jumps with the required energy levels and endurance so as not to get injured like the last time.
Listen good, intepret better and execute for gold.
That’s what Jayden needs endurance to jump over and out the long and triple jump pits! Stephen Francis is the BEST!
Mr Francis speaks in parables . If you ate gifted , you will eat the nuggets her drops.
The Real Boss. No egos, no 'Riley's distinctions'😂, no pettiniess. Just as it is. Thank you Mr. Francis. You have my vote to be President of JAAA, starting today.
Thanks Mr. Steven Francis always for your honest imput. I appreciate you wholeheartedly for you're the man truly show how much you love the sport and not just the sport the economical aspect of providing the nourishment and financial assistance that's needed to maintain a stable mindset and the encouragement that these youngsters can perform satisfactorily at the hightest level, knowing that going up against some greats who are consideted seasoned and well experienced in their pursuit for the gold. I wish them God's best! May God continue to preserve you and see you through as you work along with all of these coaches who truly mean our athletes well! Thanks again!
One of the best along side Mr Mills two genius l love them both 🎉❤🎉❤🎉🎊🎉❤️🥰😘🔥👍🎈🎂❤️❤️🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏
There is something about this interview that is so authentic…I appreciate all his responses. Big up Coach
Riley's two engineering degrees don't make him an athletic expert! 😂
😂😂😂
This is an ignorant statement, go do proper research on the credentials of Mr Riley
Riley nuh have 2 sense .... it nuh matter what hid credentials are .... Frano is a world record coach 😂😂😂😂😂 and have more Olympics and world's medals than Riley have Champs Medals 😂😂😂
@@donovanmclean5486 I said what I said! Go somewhere else with your 'go do research '
@@donovanmclean5486 Your statement is majoring in the minor. The substantive point made by Mr. Francis was directed at the presumptive ability or inability of Mr. Riley to coach at the senior level and not his credentials.
Isn’t it an ignorant position to question the ability of Mr Francis given the evidential and historic achievements under his belt?…..smh
Sensei, guru, class in session🙏🏽🇯🇲🇯🇲
Mr Francis should be honored for his contribution
Stephen Francis for JAAA President.
I prefer him be Prime Minister of Jamaica
I MUST CONCUR
Conflict of interest.
are you crazy!!!He is too divisive....other senior coaches have that same issue with him.
Well the MVP is actually run by Bruce James, so there you go.
Franno just teach mi about the Dunning Fruger effect....Where pple with limited knowledge over estimate there competence resulting in poor decisions
Love listening Stephen always. Him nuh mince words, him nor beg nuh friend😂😂
Masterful interview. Makes Riley look like the amateur he really is
Stephen Francis is a genius coach. Shericka and Tia look like fine-tuned, thoroughbred race horses. One must remember that he coached the athlete who came the closest to Flo Jo's record.
May God bless and keep everyone safe for the Paris Olympics.
Franno oral Tracey peep through the hole in the wall and said that Kishaine a run through the fence and ano lie him a tell
Bwoy Franno yu cold hearted baba. I accept what you say though. The Dunning-Kruger Effect. Riley you don't know enough to know that you don't know anything. Leave it alone. You are out of your depth. Settle with the juniors. Leave the senior athletes alone. Get out of the way. Well said Franno.
Franno you have done it again first the dunning kuger effect and now to drop 9.77 while looking at Seville dam Tia OMG you are at it again
I have to agree with Coach Francis re the approach to 400m. The athletes should be allowed the opportunity to mimic what is required at the Olympics. Anything less is not in their best interest. I was appalled when I first heard that's what the JAAA had decided to do. Had me seriously questioning who was behind that narrative.
Mr Riley needs to “Sit as an apprentice and learn”.
😂😂😂
user-xj5pr4pm1z you CLEARLY don't see how well Excelsior is doing at Champs under the coaching of Riley. Francis might be a good coach but some nurturing of his athletes is ALSO IMPORTANT hence so many wouldn't leave. Thing about it😮
@@brandtifoot8470Well Coach Francis acknowledged Coach Riley's success with high school athletes. However, his argument was that he doesn't have the know-how at the senior athletes' level.
Junior level and senior level are two different beasts. Hence, the reason, many successful junior athletes struggle at the senior level. Eg. Briana Williams, Jaheel Hyde, and Christopher Taylor to name a few. The transition is not easy for most, especially when they do not have the right personnel helping them. Two engineering degrees and success at the junior level does not mean automatic expertise at the senior level. Listen and learn.
Love this man interviews he has no time for media dramatics to drum up foolishness for coverage and click bait commentary! Big up as it’s all about the Olympic Paris 2024 games!!
Jamaica has a misconception about brilliance. An Engineering degree means nothing outside of Engineering. 😑😒 Riley definitely not proven with Seniors and is way out of his league
😅
very informative interview ntg wrong with speaking the truth juniors and seriors are 2 different league
Kishane a walk left Watson in training so effortlessly wow!
Yute deh gonna make di team if they decide he's going to wear JA colours once and for all
Franno mi a support same way.. talk it as it is... simple.. Franno record with seniors is there for all to see, no disputing this.. All Franno a tell Riley, leave di seniors alone until him learn to deal wid senior athletics..
From Wolmers days, Mr. Francis never held his opinion. I really appreciate how measured his words are. I hope MVP get some more medals this Olympics....
So humble
Anything Francis say a gospel.
Really now @demardixon. Only sometimes.
WORDS OF WISDOM
What an interview!!!
I like this man. No fuss, says what he has to say based on his vast experience and makes no apology for his honesty and his wisdom.
JAAA needs a new crop of leadership. Same old fogies day in day out. Tired of these same names at the helm.
@francinestaple7192
These people that running the Jaaa are very good at the high schools level, but when they build the kids for college and the pro’s they don’t want to let the kids go..
So they are getting in the way of the professional coaches still trying to dictate to the senior coaches on how things should be run that’s why none of the top splinter’s shows up for 4x4 in the Bahamas..
And because of this Failure in the Bahamas now frano and the senior coaches get to rewriting the rules at the Jaaa for their athletes by exposing the high school coaches that currently running things now..
@tyeguy5373 ok. Anyway, my point still stands we need new blood. Every single year for decades, we are hearing the same issues
@@francinestaple7192
I totally agree with you, now that it’s election time for the Jaaa presidency we might see some changes now that Frano draw a line between him and the rest of the professional, coaches against the current heads of the Jaaa..
Real is Real!
Clubs can recruit train feed athletes. Schools can recruit train, feed athletes and send them to meets.
The JAAA does mot train, feed, house anyone and is only a broker that sends teams overseas with Govt help.
The Schools control youth development and the clubs develop the adults. What is the role of JAAA?
Job well done Mr Raynor. Excellent interview…
This makes me want to fly down for the trials it seems like there are going to be fire works
Respect Francis 🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️
Best female sprint coach in the world numbers don't lie
This questionnaire has deliberately ignored Oblique Seville
This man is a wise man
The great guru
I pray for all the athletes good health.
All the best Mr. Francis, MVP, JAAA and Jamaica !! KaBOOM !!!!
Steven is too good!
The video is very good.
When Franno speaks I listen. The man intelligence is on another level. Riley may want to sit this one out. I agree with his take on hibbert, he should be competing against the best to test himself, but he is still very young. Everything Franno spits is facts. But interesting he said he didn’t watch the Riley interview but was able to respond to every word Riley said, clever. Wishing all his charges and other 🇯🇲athletes success at trials.
Frano jus mek a duppy
"Of course, she, run"; on the, "RUN-WAYS"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This man making so much sense
This is hilarious in parts 🤣🤣🤣
Just you interviewing this genius of a human is like a box office hit. I don't see for the life of me why Riley cannot put away the ego and see the obvious. I see it, and I can't coach athletics. I see it because Mr. Francis explained it clear enough for kindergartens like me. How come Riley fails?
SMC…. Small man complex!!
Classy
Elaine n shelly left this man camp why y’all bringing either on of them up under this post, they’re rivalry to his team
@jermainemiller they are not the only ones that has left. Quite a few more. Why is that so. 😮
The JAAA want the spotlight without working for it, while some are killing themselves with the work.
Sensibly they have taken Mr. Francis' advice and gone back to theee rounds of the Men's 400m. Heats Thursday morning, semis Thursday evening and finals Friday. Two days rest to the 4x400 on Sunday
Did they really? That's great news.
@@evertonsjackson4753 Yes they did. Ricardo Chambers tweeted it
Oh! I didn't know this either
MVP CAMP LOOKS VERY PROSPEROUS THIS YEAR!!!!
Interesting insights regarding the forthcoming season. These young Turks have a place in sports; however, veterans must be granted the opportunity to share their experiences freely. However, it appears that there are some negative vibes emanating from Wolmers pass days.
The best
Degrees is theory... theory is critical but insufficient to achieving excellence. In Jamaica the management class is too status oriented... confusing professionalism with "theory and memory" predominantly...
They have a habit of complicating simple things when the focus should be on simplifying complex things. That's what makes Francis so successful.
Mum is the word
4:45 Riley and his team is like waspy can't make honey
Appreciate the interview but 90% of the questions were the same as Ricardos from Sportsmax...When you get Franno in an interview you must not waste a second😅
Hehehehe!! The part about MVP and Kishane looking the best ever is a big deal
What is the machine they found in australia?
JAAA better listen!
Brother Francis if Jamaica is expected to take the Gold in Paris for the Mens 💯 meters they must be able to clock in the 9.7 to win
Mr Riley please leave the senior athletes team alone concentrate on the juniors if there's a problem please contact the big don't be like you know it all
Nah! Franno bring out the dunning kruger effect. That is a high level psychological dismissal. Most layman have never even heard about Dunning Kruger 😅
Is Kevona Davis coming back to Jamaica to train since she has finished college in the US?
46 people. Most of them have not gone that fast😂
All this degree mean nothing when it come to the real work. Stay in ur lane. High skl coach a tell PROFESSIONAL wat to do😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
In Franno, we trust
FRANNO SOON GET BACK HIS CROWN 👑
His degrees just give him a hot temper to talk sh,,
Mi nuh care what nobody say mi a work with frano
If Francis is expecting his athlete to repeat last year's performance level, he might as well call Richardson and concede from now. His athlete needs to be better than last year to beat Richardson.
Add to that list of hopefulls, Nickisha Pryce. THE WOMEN'S 400m is my big race. Hope Jamacia got this girl home and in the squad. By extension the 4x4 .Should have been grooming Shanoya Douglas for this. If you didn't Jamacia missed a trick for Paris 2024
Who doesn’t redirect this man is insane .
