WHAT A GWAAN WITH BRIANA?

[@rosemarietracey150]

Maverick, Brianna Williams is one of my favourite people. I love so many things about her and really hope and pray that she can find back her form. The problem with us as fans is that people like UB. SAFP, ETH SJ and others make it look so easy that we forget that they are human!!! I wish Bri Bri all the best, she will get it together by God's grace 🙏 ❤

[@michaelnembhard7698]

Brianna running with a smile is a good sign. Come trials she will be a force to reckon because she is a big time performer At her young age it is not wise to count her out because her wagon is full and my advice is to keep going with her. Ato .can take back his charge i agree 100%.

[@grasworxTTGameplan]

Bri was in Trinidad a lot during the early part of her career. She was working at a level two or three years ahead of her age band as a 15/16 year old. She was one of the most disciplined, committed athletes I've seen - at any age. A lot of her early success was easily due to her technique. She understood starts > drive phase > transitions better than nearly every teenager in her era. Khalifa St Fort was her senior; her bestie and her mentor. And everyday she had that iron to sharpen her in training. But....as is true for nearly all athletes: age-banded success and early blooming of "talent" all levels out as a senior elite. There are no scrubs in Team Jamaica's top 10 sprinters. I would never speculate that Bri has reacher her speed limit. She is not even running at her own lofty PBs. But I would go so far as to speculate that Ato was an even bigger part of Bri's success than just his coaching. His presence in her camp was like a father figure to those girls. He led them on a mission to take over the world - and, for a fleeting second - they did exactly that. Bri's debut album was a breakaway hit! Her second album is still in the studio...I feel confident that she will get back her mojo. But she is a cautionary tale of how difficult it is to transition from top youth elite to podium contender on the world's biggest stages.

[@darrionmayemathmax]

Brianna is a great athlete, and one of my favorite. She will be fine. She caved under pressure to leave her Coach Ato. The time she spent training in Jamaica was a waste of time (in my opinion) and a huge setback. Brianna is 22 years old and if the the great Marie Josee Lou, can be rising to prominence in her 30's Brianna will get there. Just stability, focus and positive vibes from "John Public". Give her time. She is still in the adjustment period of her new coach and new environment.

[@mikerobinson549]

Y’all remember when Sha’carrie came last at Prefontaine Classic in Eugene. Some athletes have days like that and remember that she is a female who has monthly cycles. So, it could just be one of those days

[@IBumpg]

This does not only happen to athletes. Life is not a science, even though we try to make it so. There are many things which cannot be explained in a logical manner. One such phenomenon is a human being. The cookie cutter/ box approach does not work. One cannot create a mold and expect both A and B to fit in it as desired. Over-analysis is the order of the day. There are too many experts sitting around keyboards pontificating and positing about all and sundry. What's happening to Briana is a common occurrence in all facets of life. She will be just fine. Everybody knows that we do not necessarily find the object of our search when totally focused on same. More often than not it appears when we least expect it. She will be good, and soon.

Understandable points but the sport is science or Math tho….even with bolt and the calculation they made about him as tall has he his shoulder be that fast….well to put it this way….Just has how we can have the right formula for a question but forget to put in the right numbers,it’s the same..Math is universal in everything and that’s playing out in Brianna’s career…Everything needs to be calculated and if the wrong calculation is used,it will throw a person off.

I ❤ Brianna. Plenty of juniors don't make the transition to dominance as seniors. In EVERY sport. Just from a numbers standpoint, all the High School All stars wont make the NBA. We can blame coaching, motivation, money..bla bla. It's just the reality of professional sports

[@laboriousTwala]

This is the most Accurate and Graceful comment here👌🏽✨. Unfortunately Senior athletics is a whole different beast.

There are a lot of variables that go into the development of an athlete, particularly the females. She has been exposed to top-class coaching and injury management. So what could be the matter?

It looks like her lower physique need to trim down a little, body look too heavy especially her thighs. Brianna has a lot of years ahead at 22 now. If by age 25 to 28 she still lagging behind, I would say mentally she is done or almost getting there.. That 100M invitational race coming dead last should make her stronger.
