They needed 2 6's in every game. The only hope was playing for a 0-0 draw. The offense was anemic regardless of how many attackers there were.Observer1 said:
That's not the case. Phil played two 6's in the Arkansas game because he needed the defense to get a draw so he went with only one 10 instead of his preferred 2 (Ivey and Becerra). For the following game, he wanted more offense, so he went back to two 10's.

Any insight on this group, and are awaiting any other signees? Only 5 girls to a team that's losing 10…

Or, those were the only five that would sign when G told them he was still in, and any hope of a new coach was out.
5 freshmen are going to do nothing for this roster/team next year.
Phil has just retired, announced today, Now what?
That's huge. G may be the CEO of the program, but the strategy/development has always been Phil. I don't see how G would rebuild completely at this stage in his career.Rastin said:

This may be the domino we've been waiting to fall.
G is staying....hiring another Associate HC
1) We can use the spots in the transfer portal assuming G decides to play them and we don't necessarily need to develop since they're older.
2) There will be a lot of girls that are trap-doored with the new roster limits next year. That should be another tranche of players besides the girls that are looking for a change of scenery.

G is 100% responsible for what has happened to the program over the last 5 + years. Cannot blame Phil. It's all on G.
This is just insanity that we are sticking with him.

Expect more years of the steady decline in our program
This is a really positive development that the players probably wanted and has the potential to be great for the program.Rastin said:

Where was this announced?

"This is a group of talented players who can each come in as a freshman and make a positive impact on our team's success."
Sure, all coaches are gonna say that. But it reminds me that he brought in a bunch of transfer players this year to specifically make an impact on our offense and he still started the returning players most of the year, ignoring all of those tranfers.
Since he will still be around we have to 'hope' that the new guy is really good, G allows him latitude to put in a different system and our players are able to adjust and use their talent.
Will just have to wait and see but it will be a very long wait.
G had to throw Phil under the bus to keep his job. Not that it wasn't deserved. I'm very interested to see who will take the job. To get a top assistant/associate head coach you would think G would have to guarantee he would retire when his contract is up. That's also risky for an incoming top coach if the next 2 season are similar to this season. We seem to be just prolonging the inevitable.
This isn't like Iowa football where if only we can find a great OC this program would be in great shape. An assistant coaching change isn't making a huge difference I don't believe. Or a closer to home example; an assistant coach wasn't going to save Jimbo.
Roster spots double and all can be given partial or full scholarships. How is that a problem?TRM said:

In regards to that article, G did say in August that this was one of the most talented rosters he's ever had and that they can easily be contending for the college cup… so I wouldn't trust him evaluating anything lol
So…him or fans are better?

Bc they top teams will just take more of the top talent and G will let this team descend even further towards AAC talent

It's clear, we aren't interested in competing at the highest level at this time in soccer. We would like to, but not if it involves any additional money.taylorswift13_ said:Day 10 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 9 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 8 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 7 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 6 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 5 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 4 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 3 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:Day 2 of asking why isn't Coach G fired yettaylorswift13_ said:

Phil retired, what does this mean for G?

Yeah, Phil wasn't the problem. This is a save your job move unless Phil volunteered at some point during the season to be the scapegoat. Don't see how this changes much going into next year. Trev probably going to allow G to finish out his contract, 2 more years.
Roster spots didn't double; it shrunk from 35 to 28. The maximum number of scholarships did double from 14 to 28 but at most 28 athletes can receive scholarships. You can still give partials, but 2 half offers will still count as 2 towards the 28.greg.w.h said:Roster spots double and all can be given partial or full scholarships.

What is going to happen is the back end of the rosters will be cut to save money that is needed to offset the cost of the increase in scholarships.
What assistant is going to come here knowing G's contract is up in 2 years and it not getting extended without a spectacular season next year? This just delaying the inevitable.
My thinking is maybe a young assistant from a top program who knows he can inherit this program once G's gone… but that's a tough risk! Why come and play for a mediocre program who has a head coach that'll never take accountability for anything and who's recruiting hasn't been so strong the past few years…
Aside from Calzada, Armenta, Matula, and Becerra I'm not sure what this lineup would look like… don't see many balls going into the net next year
We have O'Rourke coming off the knee -
Cornogg may come back

Phil did not volunteer.
Gives somewhat Bobby Petrino vibes with Fisher, situations seem somewhat similar. Coaches trying to save their ass
Well it appears Swiftie you are going to be doing those daily waiting posts for at least one more year.
I really hope whatever changes happen our team learns to control the ball and keep possession next year.
