How did THIS happen?

Postby The Q » Sat Jul 23, 2005 4:26 pm

Former SMU women's soccer coach Greg Ryan, who took a team that had made the women's Final Four a few years before his arrival and made it into an underachieving squad that played a boring style, is now the coach of the U.S. Women's National Team. Is this a recent development?

If he coaches like he did at SMU, our status as one of the best -- if not the best -- team in the world is in dire jeopardy. He had a lot of talented players when he was on the Hilltop and did nothing with them.

That's like the soccer equivalent of replacing Jimmy Johnson with Dave Campo.

I believe Jimmy Johnson was replaced by Barry Switzer, who was replaced by Chan Gailey, who was replaced by Dave Campo, no? But I get your meaning.
