I don't know her per se, but I always thought Hoff was just a really hard worker but lacked some amount of natural talent (obviously has a lot, but not like a massive amount) and competitive edge to put her over the top. She also recently switched coaches (right??? when Bob Bowman came back to Baltimore?) and he recently started her on a weight training program. Maybe she isn't far enough along in that program yet where it's helping her rather than hurting her. Or maybe the weights were a mistake for her.
