    So what

    And you all are paying MORE $$ for this. How does someone whose PERSONAL highest level of athletic achievement become a coach of a "distinguished" group of kids - where parents are clamoring to pay more to have their boys coached by him? And - note - his teams have a well-documented history of getting worse by the end of the season. The answer screams loudly as to why his judgment appears to be contrary to other coaches who have a history of athletic success.

    High School soccer - come on, that's not an achievement. And why doesn't he coach his teams in his own town? There is a DA where he's from -maybe the parents of kids there are too well-informed or have too many good choices than to play for someone who wasn't accomplished in his own right as a player. Who knows - but what is known is that this coach was not a successful athlete and is not a successful coach. Maybe it is because he speaks with an accent and is fluent in Spanish that parents believe he must know soccer and is worth the extra money for a regression in development? So, I couldn't be happier that my son plays select - at least the coach there doesn't pretend to be something more than he is - and we don't pay more for the privilege of being coached by an unaccomplished coach!

    Long live mediocrity! Teach our sons to be a successful as you! Ha ha ha ha ha...............
    So what - this guy couldn't cut it as an athlete. So what's your point?
