You sound like you would fit right in at Middle Tennessee State.

Mertz has plenty of recruits. In fact, she has too many. If I were a player Oregon bound before Mertz's contract is up (as she will undoubtedly be fired) then I would look elsewhere. Icing on the cake, she is a crappy coach. It is a lose - lose.

Last year's sophomore class started with 11 and has 3 remaining from the original players. Transferring is expensive and stressful. Do your homework. Talk to parents away from the coach.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostHer contract will be up the end of next year. I get what you are saying about local wanting to be a duck. There is a lot that goes into it though. For example, do you want a quality coach who actually coaches or a psychopath that likes to feel like a demigod? Do you want to be on a roster of 30+ or one where someone getting screwed is not mandatory? Does DD endear herself well to the lesbian class or could she quickly become a throwaway?

The situation at UO now does sound gloomy. Only 3 out of 11 sophomores left! No way they renwew her contract so only one more year. One local 2018 player has already made a verbal. Sounds like she'll be playing for a new coach.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIf she's likely to get fired at the end of next year, perhaps things will improve. If she offers a local Duck-wannabe a spot(even if it's spot #30 with little to no money), I bet many take it. Hardly any OR players will get offers from any Pac12 school, with the best chances being Duck/Beaver. A very few will even get that. Isn't an offer of a spot on Duck or Beaver bench likely the best offer many OR girls can hope for?

There were three Oregon raised girls who transferred out of UO last year. All three continue to play D1 soccer and are likely much happier. If I were a player committed to UO I would think long and hard.

They have never done very well and to think that a non coach such as Kat can improve on an already dismal situation was a bit too much to hope for.
