I like Coach Hackworth but I wonder why Elliinger did not Coach the 87's in an International tournament?
apparently he chose to spend the time training the 88s, the group next up in the FIFA U17 cycle. Makes sense to me.
International tornie-no the head coach should be there. 88's can certainly train for a week without him.
An interesting follow-up on Rogers Rumor has it Rogers was not even invited to the ODP Interigionals in Chula Vista over Thanksgiving after being there for the past two years. Would seem to affirm the fact that he was penalized for leaving Brandenton. Also heard that he has has gotten even stronger with his training with J. Klinsman. He recently led his club team to the CSL Premeir State Championship played at the Home Depo Center. Does not make sense that the US would haze its top young players.
