I hope these rumors are wrong. We need more Teams and it sucks to possibly be losing another.

I thought ML posted in Vital a couple of weeks ago saying the team is set for 2022, maybe something has changed

That's a total bummer, if true.

As good as a source gets really I guess, so unfortunately you'd be inclined to believe it wouldn't you.

Anyone know what's happening? Coty was awesome this year and was looking forward to seeing him on the new 250 next season.

Did he say they weren’t coming back, or he heard rumors they weren’t coming back, but didn’t know for sure?

Sounds like the latter, hopefully someone can clear it up, dude deserves a good team behind him.

He said nothing about FXR. But it sounded like he was riding a Honda again.

Kinda - he also said he didn't think JMart resigned with Star. Right now it's just all rumors, would hate for Shock to wait in limbo and then at the last minute find he's without a ride

What more do you want?

You do understand that if anyone used “real” journalism tactics and actually “broke news & dug dirt” that they’d quickly be blackballed from the pits right?

This is moto, the homeschooled Bros make the rules.

Swap interviewed him, asked him if he will be back with the same team, he turns around and slaps the bike with a big smile on his face and says yes he will be back with the same team. Is that not a media member asking the question and getting an answer and publishing that answer for all to see?

Yep been hearing that for years. Can't ask questions because you will be black balled. That and can't have rules to race 250 to 250 because of Honda is the go to for everything in this sport...

I'm just saying rumors of a teams demise may hurt it more than actual facts or interviews. Get out in front of the story, but maybe ML can just make the topic disappear, seems to work for his prior pursuits

Yes and this rumor came out after that interview. Sorry for asking, guess we find out when SX starts

If you think you’ve got the best way to do it then start a platform and get it done bud.

Something tells me it’s not as easy and simple as you think.

Swap's source is pretty solid. I'd go with it until or unless someone comes along with an equally solid source saying otherwise.

Swap didn't say Schock is staying with the same team, Schock himself said he is staying with the same team.

I feel like I'm the only one commenting that actually watched the video.

Him and Joey are tight, he texted Joey and asked him if he was going to Star and Joey texted back, I can’t say. So he assumed he signed with Star.

Seriously, after their cougar magnet talk Cody directly said he’s staying with the team and Honda would like him to race the 250 class to build up, and Cody briefly expanded on that.

What more of a source could be better for a rider’s season plan than the rider himself?

You aren’t alone, grape 😂

GuyB asked him directly if he was getting attention from other teams, not manufacturers, teams. To which he replied, I'm staying where I'm at, literally. How could you come to the conclusion he's staying on a Honda and not the team he's currently on?? He's not a part of Team HRC, he's on FXR/Chaparral Honda.

Checkers guys, not chess.

He’s stepped away from WCL.

The unfortunate truth is I don't think anyone would be surprised if this is the case.

He's probably blown every dollar he can borrow an then some family money and then some more. Wouldn't be the first time. The results have been really good with Schock. I've enjoyed the story and I hope he can keep it going.
