Have a hard time believing that. Feels like that would be for the memes almost.
Well, when the boss of Fox post a such thing on instagram (even before the news of Marvin was posted) and when you see the same rumor coming from lot of different "influent" people in the mx industry, i didnt have hard time to believe it at all
Nick spoke my mind haha

Since I doubt Reed will get too good results, I'd likely see another take the spot.

He did just announce that this was his last season. He'll wanna stay healthy for his new Trofeo Cup career.

I doubt KTM puts their effort into Reed for the 2020 season. Realistically, Tickle gets the spot since he's been riding KTM's since his suspension and he was on the factory effort when his suspension came into effect.

I don't get why the Masterpool kids aren't getting these rides. Nothing against the old guys but their ceiling is pretty well established at this point.

Didn't they say they wanted no affiliation with him when he got banned?

Jake would probably be solid since he's already a 450 rider. Didn't even think of him.

Signing Reed is the perfect way to not make the results of the fill-in matter very much at all. Reed is gonna pull numbers for RB KTM no matter how he does on the track. And he's not gonna ask for much, if any money at all. Great deal for both parties.

Fill-in riders barely get paid as it is

Ty will be for Star Yami, but I heard it was kind of a big deal with the family.

That explains it. Couldn't understand why that much talent kept getting passed over.

I only know of Jake and Ty, and Ty I have seen videos of him practicing SX, so is there a third I'm forgetting about to warrant a "they"? Also, is that just a thing with the 956 training that they don't do SX? The few videos Ty has posted looks like he is out on the amateur SX that they have the 85 kids practice on before monster cup and even thing it looks kinda rough.

FWIW Wil Hahn said on this week's Pulp show that Masterpool would not be riding supercross.
