Last summer, the World Cup reminded us that soccer can bring us together. In recent weeks, we have used soccer to pull college athletics and its soccer community apart. We deserve a better conversation. A view from inside the room: My thoughts on the future of D1 men's soccer.

Committee approval. Cabinet review. Sent back for clarification. Committee reaffirmation. Cabinet approval. The flex model cleared multiple reviews and approvals. 95.5% of our players support it. Why are we still trying to stop it? It’s time to move forward.

Replying to @ussoccer
@ussoccer strongly supports the proposed new model for D1 men’s college soccer. Given ongoing debate, we wanted to share why this matters, how we engaged in the process, how feedback/concerns influenced the final model, and what happens next. Here’s to growing the game together.

Coaches! We have an opportunity and an obligation. Be the vehicle. Inspire and drive, empower and teach. Help young people grow and be better. Don’t use them as the vehicle for your own gain, your own ambition, your own agenda. Give them the game. We had ours, it’s theirs now.

Nice job @MikeWoitalla recognizing the hard work and commitment to the craft! @BrettUttley is one of the “Great Guys” in the game. Educated, humble and talented!
An early step in Brett Uttley's fascinating coaching career came at his alma mater @QU_MSOC with its longtime coach Eric Da Costa @DaCostaEric An array of coaching roles prepped former Rhode Island youth star well for @AustinFCII helm 🔗socceramerica.com/brett-uttl…

So much and so many to be thankful for; family, friends, staff, administrators, players, teammates, etc. Be grateful for not only the people in our lives but also the experiences (both good and bad) along the way. Each of which shapes us and makes us better. We Win or We Learn!
