    She was announced as a GDA coach, but hearing that is not the case - bait and switch?

    No she and others just realized it was a huge conflict of interest.

      No surprise there - does anyone ever believe what the Timbers say?

        Realized a conflict of interests - we live in Timbers land, I didn't think folks were capable of seeing conflicts of interests.

          Yes, claiming to be an elite coach and then agreeing to coach rec-level GDA is a bit of a conflict...

            Agreeing to coach at the new top level program in the country while still chained to ECNL. Better cut the chains before the ship sinks!

              Real simple - Timbers/Thorns Academy is not the place for top coaches.

              On the boys' side, the best coaches are at OYSA teams (at alliance clubs and beyond). On the girls' side, they are in the ECNL and a couple of feeder clubs.

              The borg doesn't pay well so the only coaches they can get are GW lackeys.

                  According to the Thorns front office she was released from her contract. No other reason's given.

                  They have opened up a national search for a replacement.

                          National search, bahah!

                          Why not bring back Tina - that worked out so well for them the last time around.

                          If not her, swing by the bull pen - there are always ex-timbers trying to figure out what do with their life their - coach girls soccer, hey why not.

                            Can't dispute that the Timbers/Thorns DA does not attract top youth development coaches, simple reason they don't pay squat.

                            With that said Oregon's club landscape is not populated with any coaches of any notable real achievement or distinction either, but strangely they are paid quite well for producing nothing.

                            In the end the coaching is a wash on the club scene vs Timbers/Thorns GDA.

                            So the attraction for the families and kids is the cost.

                            Nothing or next to nothing at the DA/GDA Timbers/Thorns. or

                            Upwards of 10K to 12K at the neighborhood clubs.

                              $6000k for ECNL, better coaching, and don't have to wear the patch.
