Lots of thoughts and emotions, back, forth, up and down about this weekend BUT no matter how you slice it @Josc_Roberson is going to the Paris @Olympics as an athlete. Never ever give up... that's my girl! 😍
Joscelyn Roberson made headlines across the college gymnastics world when she chose Georgia as her new home after spending the previous two years at Arkansas.
Now, the soon-to-be junior and 2024 Team USA Olympic alternate has plans of turning UGA gymnastics into a superpower, drawing enthusiasm similar to the school’s most prominent sport.
“I do believe that gymnastics will be the football of women’s sports."

Re: critiques of Roberson’s decision to entertain offers from other programs… think of it like a job interview at a great company (which UCLA & Florida both are). Even if you have a likely offer elsewhere, if that great company wants to give you their sales pitch, you listen!
"I had the relationships I wanted. I had the coaching I wanted. I had the academics… I just loved it. And then it just felt more comfortable to me.
"When I was [in Athens], I couldn’t really explain it, but it just felt like I felt relaxed, and I felt like, ‘Okay, this is where I’m meant to be.'"
Roberson talked with Gymnastics Now ahead of her announcement on Thursday. Hear what she had to say, including why she decided to transfer, her requirements for her new college home, and her future elite plans (spoiler: she won't be competing elite this season).
