That is funnier than words can describe!

The jets are lined up off Marsh Island waiting to fly in for their interviews.

Orlando Cervantes is the Technical Director for the Olympic Development Program in Louisiana. He would be a good asset if not someone to help lead UL towards their next coach.

How does the Olympic Development Program tie in with the US Soccer Fed?

Honestly, he could be the worst X’s and O’s coach in the world and this would still be a fantastic hire. He’ll be on a first name basis with damn near every top soccer prospect in the state.

I don't see anything about him being with the Olympic Development Program. His title on that site is the Technical Director of the state soccer association (LSA), not that it negates your point. Was a head coach at Lamar, assistant at Indiana and a few other stops

I mean, let’s be honest. If we just went down the road and hired the current Head Coach at St. Scholastica, who has made the championship game 4 out out of the past 6 years and won the Championship game for the largest Division 3 of those years, could we do any worse than the past 7-8 years?

St Scholastica over the past six years:

4 State Championship Game Appearances
3 State Titles

Find it hard to believe we must do a national search to do better than Scot’s tenure.

In this modern day and age I think it is fair to say that every job search can be done "nationally" without any additional cost or work involved.

St. Scholastica has been very good and they have produced a good bit of Div 1 talent. I don't remember much specifically about the St. Scholastica coach (which is usually a good thing) but there certainly will be more considered than just winning. Will they be a good "fit" with the community, do they have good recruiting connections, are they M. Lotief in waiting? There are a couple of highly successful coaches in this state at the high school/ club level that would be a disaster for any college team.

They specifically feed the Olympic team from their specific travel teams country wide. He worked with my daughter earlier this year and was the most organized coach I've ever seen.

True Dat.

Most of the top line high school coaches are active in their local soccer clubs. Scot and Pogi came from the same population. Make the same mistake three times in a row?

Besides recruiting for college is totally different than recruiting for high school.

What is the salary for a position like this?
