Without re-addressing the two styles of play (direct vs controlled/possession), do you think the USDA needs to rethink the type of athletes they chose? Go away from the prototypical athlete they always chose. To just clarify I am not referring to the less athletic, just a different mold.

It's not the players it is the coaches. Great athletes can be extremely technical. The coach must instill a system and coach to it.
Anyone see this goal by Lynn Williams?
Watch the second goal on this clip and remember, these are professionals defending her.

RKYF, thanks for posting...Williams cut-back created so much space she could have had a BBQ in front of the net!
Did she really call in Sullivan? I hope she tells her to...... Well you can guess all the colorful words I would come up with.
Doesn't Stanford coaches frown upon leaving during season?
She is going if her names in the press release

I thought that it was an interesting group of selections. Apparently she is better than all of the pro players at her position.
So what's she gonna do?

Not sure what you mean. Give me a call.
Is JF gonna miss tournament games for UCLA?

I am guessing both Andi and Jessie are training with their National Teams and maybe missing the first round/game on Friday 10th...?
I think both Stanford and UCLA will be fine.
Then my guess is maybe sent back early to school to join their teams with for the 2nd round...?
Again-- I don't know anything-- I am just totally completely guessing & also on how the NT has worked in the past situations sorta similar to this.
Map would know if I am hot or cold on this...

MAP probably has the inside scoop on JF but as far as AS goes. The NT doesn't give a rats ass - they only think about themselves. PS that is from experience FYI.
After watching a number of NWSL games this past summer, Adrianna Franch seemed to be the best keeper in the league. Any reason I haven't seen her playing on the USWNT team? I think she is much better than Alyssa Naeher.

UCLA will be without it's midfield maestro against San Diego State. The team should be okay without her. If Stanford can't beat Utah Valley State (shout out to Chris Lemay the coach and Dori Moul a former Surf player on the team) without Sullivan they might as well hand back all the hardware that they are going to win later today...
