Something I was thinking about, how much do the US Seniors know about the junior team? Especially those who won't be eligible for the next quad? For example, how familiar would Gabby and Aly have been prior to their comebacks with gymnasts like Simone, Laurie, Madison, etc.? Or the 2008 girls with the Fab Five? Are they like one team together or is it really 2 programs within one?
Also there was an article years ago mentioning how Spain's female gymnasts aren't allowed to associate with the Male gymnasts because of their ages. Obviously USAG doesn't have this kind of rule since Aly talks about crushing on Jake Dalton, but do the women know the guys much outside of when they make a competition team together? Or is it more like pre 1996 where you basically meet at the airport?
