I don't have a daughter but I am a person who can read and think critically. I would LOVE it if Oregon girls (regardless of previous club affiliation) were keeping UP nationally relevant. They are not. Ultimately, it comes down to coaching and team selection and those decisions fall primarily on GS. If they were having success, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOregon girls aren't getting the job done. Why can't we all put our soccer energies into figuring out why ecnl/academy/timbers clubs/non-timbers clubs all can't produce more nationally relevant girls? That is our problem. Not whether GDA or ECNL is better. I know all of our girls could do better but how?

Kansas State has a roster of something like 35 kids. I know some of them that they took from Texas teams and those girls were very marginal. KSU would take anyone who played at the Texans, Sting or FC Dallas, ignoring that those clubs have 7 - 10 teams per age group and the disparity of talent is wide.
And if Oregon is so good, then why do they finish last in the Pac 12 every year? They haven't sniffed the tournament in years. But by all means, those so cal kids look good on paper. LOL.
And so funny that you throw out names like Chris Lemay. Have you ever spoken with him? Gee, I have. He's a decent enough guy, but he was the beneficiary at SD Surf of working at a great club in the middle of tons of talent that naturally gravitated to him. Hell, he got a girl from Brazil who just happened to move in to the area who is an incredible talent. That's not coaching, that's LUCK. It's like calling Paris Hilton a genius. No, she's just a member of the lucky sperm club. Same with the other top clubs down there. Just because a coach is fortunate enough to have talent walk through his door doesn't mean he's a good coach.
But of course, this is why you are not a DOC or an AD, you are just a dad with a daughter who only is attractive to PCC.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. GS is the same thing as well as your thinking.

U of P was a different era. Now there is some serious competition. As for UO and OSU, they are not bad teams but are playing in an outrageously difficult league.
The Pac-12 has the second-most teams in the poll with five members in the preseason top 25 for the first time since 2010. The Conference is also tied for first nationally with three teams making the top 10.
The Oregon soccer sucks is stupid. Many of these teams would routinely beat most other D1 teams. Everyone can't be in the top 10. It does suck but there you go.
As to Oregon and Oregon State, the issue isn't that they aren't ranked, the issue is that they are at the bottom of the Pac 12 year after year. Anyone who thinks Kat isn't a dead woman walking just doesn't have a clue. She needs a top 7 finish in the Pac 12 this year and with how the conference is loaded, I don't see it happening. Linus is only slightly better than Kat. If OSU is serious about improving their program, they would fire him and bring in someone that actually knows how to recruit. His "we do things differently here" meaning that OSU is always the last to fill out their class means that he is taking the second tier players, at best. Don't expect much from Oregon or Oregon State this year and in the years ahead, other than likely coaching changes.
