So who's it gonna be? fig96's post got me thinking and I really have no clue. I really wanted JCO but figured he'd take over for Peckerman at Columbia. Now who the F knows.

Interesting.

So now we go after...umm...

Greg Berhalter has been rumored, especially since his brother is involved in US Soccer, but I'm not sure about him. I don't know much about him other than his pretty lengthy playing career.

I really thought they'd strike right after the World Cup...

Filling a national team gig is such a strange exercise, especially when you're dealing with a mid-level team with promise. Would be a job where I have zero clue where to start.

Sirius FC Guys this afternoon we're guessing Gregg Berhalter or Peter Vermes. Both are MLS coaches, former USMNT players. They seems to check lots of boxes. And you can't announce either until after the season so in the mean time you have Seraphim as interim and tread water

We could get Mourinho on the cheap here in a couple months.

Jeff there are good jokes and bad jokes....then there are Mourinho taking over the USMNT jokes. My blood pressure has skyrocketed since seeing your post earlier!

The parallels to filling the A&M Football coaching position are sort of interesting:

-Team has all the potential in the world, but never really met it
-Need someone who understands the culture and the people, not someone who wants to come in and totally change it
-Someone who is currently coaching at a high level, but maybe, just maybe, is willing to leave
-Ha, ha...and maybe they end there, but just a thought!

Hope Jurgen wasn't Jimbo, or Jimbo isn't Jurgen I should say, and we showed him the money, and then he chokes...
