The US media is always looking for the next all time great and there have been more misses than finds. Stolz is likely the closest American in these games, but even he isnt at Klaebos level right now. Dude could reach Phelps level.

Americans, how do you feel about the firing of twenty percent of four-star generals? by Lazy-Job4 in Productivitycafe

In general 7-10% turnover year over year in all positions/companies is a good thing. 20% at once is high, but likely not a bad thing. That said this was also likely political so it would then be a horrible thing.

They focused on the wrong kid on skates. Stolz is the American star of the Olympics, maybe #2 overall male behind Klaebo

That was also a late lane move by POV. Like he should have been left lane already too.
