I have coached thousands of US youth players.

One major issue I see is that they play vertically toward the goal even when the odds are ridiculously low of success.

If our Federation 🇺🇸 @ussoccer is insisting on “directional” training we are reinforcing one of the worst habits in youth players. Thus, we make the problem worse.

▪️Proposed Solution:

Recognize this issue and reinforce multi-directional solutions so that our players recognize that the game is indeed not a one way street. It will require us rethinking and redesigning our curriculum to nurture greater vision, better decisions and precision.

🗣️Creativity does not come from insistence, it comes from intelligence.

Most encouraging thing I heard about this hire is that TJ Otzelberger was 100% behind it. They were at South Dakota State at the same time from 2016-19.

It isn't very often when I watch an Iowa State game & have to look up who a player is. That happened last week with Rylan Barnes - a RS Fr. walk-on linebacker and the pride of Britt, Iowa & West Hancock High School legend. Tonight, he made his first start as a Cyclone and had NINE tackles! He was incredible!

Making the story even more compelling: Mom and dad Barnes couldn't find time to make the trip. Harvest.✊ That's as Iowan as it comes.

Let's hope that the crops turn out great and Rylan's family can be in Ames next week when the top-10 Cyclones will take on UCF in another Jack Trice night game.
