At least Pochettino’s reported ~$10M release clause gives US Soccer a significant chunk of 💵 to go after another high-profile manager right away.
It’s been clear that Poch won’t be the USMNT manager in the 2030 WC for some time.
If he goes, who is the best available option?

No USMNT prospects is rising faster right now.

For 7th consecutive year, D.C. United, once a showpiece of a blossoming league, has no playoff plans — a near impossibility in a league that distributes postseason passes like a guy on a street corner handing out flyers for discount mattresses.

The NCAA confirmed last night that the two-semester model for D-1 men's soccer has been rescinded.
A source alleged to GOAL.com that a lobbyist created an email account under a false identity, presented themselves as a "concerned parent" named Gustav & sent a message to administrators nationwide explaining how they could vote to rescind the proposal. 👇

Unfortunately this seems like a missed opportunity to strengthen a development pathway that is becoming increasingly irrelevant.
We’ll see how players and coaches staff (who seemed to support the change) react.
US Soccer also supported the proposal so more to come 🇺🇸👀
NCAA members rescind DI men’s soccer season proposal.

And now Gio Reyna asked for a sub due to injury… he goes straight to the locker room and I fully expect him to miss the USMNT 🇺🇸 camp 😭

That "no" vote came from Pitt's Allen Greene. Big 12 also entirely abstained from voting for the proposal, causing it to come up short in the first DI Cabinet vote and entering the rescission process.

At 236 rescind votes, and 241 nearing....it's important to note that 41 of the last 50 rescind votes don't sponsor Men's Soccer. Dark day for @NCAASoccer. Admin friends calling friends is ending an attempt to provide a better soccer experience for 5600 D1 Mens soccer athletes.

BREAKING: The two-semester model for men’s college soccer is expected to be rescinded, sources tell GOAL.
The vote needs two-thirds majority to rescind initial decision and sources say they expect that to happen.
New model originally ratified on Oct. 7.

Mauricio Pochettino says he didn't want to call both Flo Balogun and Ricardo Pepi because neither are 100% fit. He thought it was good to bring Balogun and let Pepi stay at PSV:
“We decided it was much better to keep (Pepi) training (at PSV), establishing his fitness.
We didn’t want to bring both because they’re both not 100%.”
USMNT ROSTER DROP 🇺🇸
Christian Pulisic and Balogun return and Pochettino continues the youth movement.
Santiago Castañeda gets his first call-up.
Pochettino always errs on the side of caution, so I’m assuming Weston McKennie won’t be on the November USMNT roster.
If he’s out, who would you rather see get the call up?

Great goal from Cole Campbell to cap a 4-0 win from Elversberg #USMNT

The schools that don’t sponsor men’s soccer need to worry about who and what they support, not men’s soccer.
Put the student-athletes first.
