🚨🇺🇸 Sources: U.S. Soccer is expected to make Pep Guardiola a top target to become next USMNT head coach. Obviously the pursuit would not be straightforward nor easy. But likely to start with call to Pep. w/ @PaulTenorio @HenryBushnell nytimes.com/athletic/7773820…

Analytically, Nebraska is good at running the ball, they literally just need to do it more.
Justin Evans confirms Nebraska players would like to run the ball more. 😂

2028 Severn (Md.) Archbishop Spalding EDGE Nomue Duncan has had a phenomenal junior season. Long and explosive pass rusher with room to grow. Holds just a handful of offers and is unranked at this point but that will change soon

He’d likely be a household name around here if it wasn’t for an injury that has essentially robbed him of his sophomore season Excited to see what he does in 2027

Under Rhule, when a play-caller has adopted/merged another scheme with their own, it hasn’t gone well. When they’ve brought in an outsider with complete ownership (White, Ekeler, Aurich) it’s gone well. The next OC should be given the freedom to implement his scheme
