Why Oblique Seville vs Noah Lyles Was Important for Jamaica | Racers GP Recap + Shericka Jackson

Oblique Seville took down Noah Lyles over the 100m Dash in a PB of 9.82 seconds at the Racers Grand Prix. This race was pivotal for Jamaica as Seville is arguably carrying the mantel for the men’s hopes in terms of potential sprint medals in Paris later this summer. Will this translate to success at the Olympics?

I like the fact that Oblique has awoken the excitement in the 100m men race...Paris is gonna be great

[@ozzy9348]

Remember when you said Alfred was a medal threat and everyone called you crazy. She has no trials to worry about and she’s gonna get faster. She’s going to disrupt that Jamaican/USA dominance. Great content as always bro 🙌🏾

[@TheFinalLeg]

Absolutely. I think its easy for us to get locked in on our favorites without acknowledging those who are coming. Like you said, no trials, her goal is solely focused on Paris and she will be a threat for sure. Always appreciate you!

[@k.o6157]

Still have Shacarri Richardson as the 100m gold winner

[@DJSlidinDaVersatile]

did you know she grew up and went to high school in Jamaica

[@Hengel_Andrews]

Why would having a trials be something anyone would worry about?

[@stevie586]

Alfred still isn’t a medal threat unless one of the top five are not well. The problem isn’t that Alfred doesn’t have the talent to win Gold in most Olympics…the problem is we have someone tapping into upper 10.7’s for the first time in life, compared to a woman who has run 10.54 and some low 10.6’s, a woman who has repeatedly run 10.6, a woman who has run 10.65 once and brings her A-Game, and a woman who has an on paper 10.65 PB we all know can run much faster than that, combined with 10.71 TaLou. That’s five spots right there where those runners would have to be way off their game to allow a mere “just touched 10.7” runner to beat them all at the same time. Julien looks amazing…just we usually don’t even see ONE of those ladies hardly ever, and now, we’ve got five at the same time! It’s the same with the guys right now…all these guys who have run 10.7, and most 10.8’s…it is so hard to determine who will win.

It wasn’t as important for Jamaica as it was for MEN’S sprinting on a whole! A high schooler had the world lead, not college, not professionals; a high schooler! These professionals were struggling to break 10s with almost 2 months gone into the season.

From America. Not surprising for oblique. Long over due. Lyles is not expected to win every 100 meter race. Good luck Jamaica. 👍. Go USA!

Hey, I'm starting to believe that he can win every 100m race. He may not do it but he has made me believe that he can. He used to be terrible in the 100, not anymore. Just as he said Don't let me figure out the 100 because everyone will be in trouble. He won the indoor 60m against the world record holder Christian Coleman.

The 9.7 is coming for Seville. Glen Mills said that Seville can run 9.6 and I believe him. I just want Seville to remain healthy.

[@trackuniverse9121]

He said 9.6 or faster which I think is an exaggeration. I see him running mid to low 9.7s, I don't see him running 9.6 or faster

[@Yes_I_c4n]

9.6s seems a pipe dream. Nobody goes 9.6s with a 3.42s plus finish. Even 9.75s seems extremely ambitious, given it would require a 6.33s (!) start something not even Gatlin was able to split.

[@user-oj2nw8pv9q]

If Seville run 9.6 at trials he will spread fear in everyone

[@michaelmaxwell2464]

​@@trackuniverse9121 Pretty sure that's what people thought when he said he'd make Bolt unbeatable. Mills does NOT make wild statements. He says what HE believes. When asked about Seville's time he said: Nothing new to me you know who I am.

[@trackuniverse9121]

@michaelmaxwell2464 take into account that Glen Mills made that statement a day before Jamaica trials 2022, when the reporter asked what he can expect from Seville at the trials, he said Seville will run 9.6 or faster so he was clearly referring to what Seville will produce at trials, not years in the future. Seville ended up running 9.88 for second place behind Yohan Blake, so Glen Mills prediction far off, not that I was really looking to see Seville run that fast, tho. Even now, in 2024-2025, I still don't see him running as fast as Bolt.

[@nevillewalker1227]

Apart from looking over Seville did slow down, so he could have run 9.7 high if he had ran through

Probably but it would be maybe 9.79 at best. I think there were some overblown comments about 9.75 etc. But regardless I think he can run 9.7 later this year

Im here for the Noah vs Seville rivalry. Seville is running with a chip on his shoulder this year after those two 4th place finishes.

[@barrylloyd5864]

Two years ago Mill said that Seville would run 9.7sec. Injuries woe prove the stumbling block to that prediction. Now that he is healthy that prediction is a no brainer.

[@lanettewilliams7122]

Yes!!!!! 9.7 is definitely on! Let's goooo!

[@trackuniverse9121]

That's not what Glen Mills said, you heard wrong. What he actually said was that Oblique will run 9.6 or faster, which I thought and still think is ludicrous.

[@lanettewilliams7122]

​@trackuniverse9121 Glen Mills is his coach, so he should know. Should I remind you that he's the same person who coached the legendary Usain Bolt? Relax Barbie and just watch how things play out.

[@trackuniverse9121]

@lanettewilliams7122 Yes, Glen Mills is the one who coached Usain Bolt to succeed on the international scene. But you can't give him all the credit for Usain Bolt success since Usain has been very good since his teenage years. You have to also give Usain Bolt a lot of the credit for his own success, too. Usain Bolt has been an anomaly since his high school years before he even met Glan Mills. He's the first teenager in history to go sub 20.00 in the 200m when he ran 19.93, which is insane on many levels. Glen Mills harnessed that phenomenal talent, which is Usain Bolt, and took him to the highest level, but he's not the one who built the talent. Like I said, Usain has been an anomaly from before he started being coached by Glen Mills. It's unrealistic to compare Seville with Usain and expect him to run as fast as he did just because he has the same coach. Seville running 9.6 or faster is clearly an exaggerated comment by Glen Mills. Seville is well capable of going mid 9.7 but definitely not 9.6 or faster. Also, you should take note that Glen Mills has made that statement a day before Jamaica trials 2022, so he was clearly saying Seville would run that time at the trials, not years in the future.

[@trackuniverse9121]

@lanettewilliams7122 can't compare Oblique with Usain or think Oblique can run as fast as Usain did just because he has the same coach. Your way of thinking is very shallow, can't blindly believe just because Glen Mill said so.....Usain Bolt has been a freak of nature since his high school years before he joined Racers. Don't forget the phenomenal 20.13 and 19.93 that he ran as a teenager. Usain talent is out of this world, It's very unrealistic to think Oblique will run as fast as Usain did just because he has the same coach. You have to remember that Glen Mills did not build the talent. He harnessed the talent, Usain has been an anomaly since his high school days. You have to give Usain some credit too for his own achievement.

[@fredball8240]

Agree..Jamaica fans want their guy to win and the Americans to lose and swallow their pride and admit it. Hope Noah realizes this.

[@delta_tango_dt]

Winning Championships is about so much more than just running fast, so it's hard to make accurate predictions from the small sample size of races we've had so far this season. It's also about who handles the conditions the best, who has the support staff in place, who handles pressure better than the rest, who's hungriest for the win, who's done it before and know's how to win despite the competition, some would say a bit of luck in getting drawn in the easier semifinal etc. There's so many variables that go into winning the 100m at Worlds and Olympics. It's hard to say based on what we've seen from Seville, Lyles, Simbine, Coleman, and Tebogo earlier in the year.(hope he comes back mentally and physically healthy after the death of his mom). Paris is going to be interesting.

If it would have been a slow race then maybe he would have complained, but what can you say when someone runs a 9.82 and could have been faster.

Mate, to watch this particular race and to even bring up the AR is hillarious. Fact of the matter is Lyles has not shown anything "new" compared to, say, Budapest 2023. His start is roughly on the same level and so is his 60...100m. I can see Lyles split 6.40s at 60m later in the season, I give you that, but 9.7s low and even the AR? Based in this race, I just don't see any of that.

[@TheFinalLeg]

Wait when did I say he can run 9.7 low or break the American record 🤔 I thought I explicitly said I don't think he will

[@Yes_I_c4n]

Didn't you say he has the potential to run the AR?

[@TheFinalLeg]

@@Yes_I_c4n Watch the video again, I literally said I don't think that😭 I said he can run 9.7 though, just like Seville can as well

[@TheoOJamaloO1]

@@TheFinalLeg at 7:24 you said that you don't know if he's gonna get the AR but you think he has the potential to.

[@TheFinalLeg]

​@@TheoOJamaloO1 Ok thanks. Apologies and to clarify. When I said "I dont know if he will get the American record I don't know if he'll be running 9.69/9.71. He has the potential to, Lance Noah they know what they are doing in practice, I don't know what they are doing in practice." What Im saying is that I don't think based on what we have see they he will run the record, but Its impossible for me to doubt lance and noah on what they think because I am not in practice seeing what they are seeing. The times and performances they are hitting in practice could indicate they are on pace for 9.69, but non of us know that for sure. So yes, I don't think he'll get to the AR, but if him and lance are saying their practices are pointing them in that direction, who am I to tell them they are wrong? Hope that makes sense. :)

[@beaujac311]

Did you not see Lyles earlier this year in the 60m indoor? He won one and lost one to the world record holder of that race Christian Coleman. You have to get a fast start to win the 60m. Noah has worked diligently on his starts, that is why he won the World Championship in the 100m last year.

So what happens when Lyles drops 9.7 at Trials. Will you still say he can’t win, he’s ahead of last year pace when he ran 9.83 no wind. Trending towards mid 9.7s

It's VERY NAIVE to think that track times are linear. Like just because someone runs 9.82 means the next time (or crunch time) they can go faster. Only track newbies say stuff like this 😂😂. The reality is the race is fairly meaningless with little pressure and it's easier to run relaxed here compared to Worlds or Olympics when u have to go thru rounds. Hell even trials are wayy more pressure. If I had to bet, Oblique ain't running low 9.8s at trials.
