Not even a little sore today after 9 hours of drilling and threading.
Not bad for an old dude.

LOL.
BYU is hated or revered, depending on who and where you are in Utah, but they always bring a huge fan base, (what else is there in Provo?) and a winning tradition.
Anyway, Back to soccer... Was wondering how.many parents of D1 players were D1 players themselves and if you think that makes a difference with your DD's and their athletic careers?

Which perfectly circles the loop in that I've heard much about their soccer program but ironically haven't tracked or watched BYU at all.....But based on last years chatter, they graduated some of their top players....anyone here have the 411 On their program for this season?

Gomes has been one of the best offensive players in the country, the past couple years. Imho.I saw them play this spring. Nadia Gomes will be offensive player of the year in the WCC. She is tricky and athletic. Their defense is a little suspect. I saw them lose 5-2 but that was against a pretty decent opponent. I also saw them beat UNLV, a tournament team in 2016, 4-0. It will be Santa Clara, BYU and Pepperdine at fighting it out in the WCC and all of them plus possibly LMU will get into the tournament.
I don't get it.
Not sure what you are asking, but it's the Pac12. The 3 most dominating programs are Stanford, USC and UCLA. For the most part every other school in the conference is playing for 4th or 5th place.Can someone help me understand the commits to Oregon? They are getting talented kids. Their last winning season was 10 years ago and last season they won 2 conference games. You know the mindset of high school kids and parents..do they not look at that? I don't want to disparage the coaching staff, but I am curious what they are selling that is so compelling. I can't imagine her job is very secure and from a snobby so cal person, the rain, that hideous turf and the lack of results (even since she has been there) seems off-putting. Props to the staff for recruiting well....but what is the draw? Nike/gear? Pac-12? Come help us turn it around? Thoughts?

Has your DD tried the Magistas? My DD has chubby feet and those are the widest cleats Nike offers. Mercurials are only for narrow feet.The Nike thing is cool, except players have to wear Nike cleats. Nike does not make any cleats that fit my kids' feet.
Ever since New Balance came out with wide width cleats, we have not tried on any Nikes. Next time we are in Soccerloco we will take a look. Thanks for the recommendation.Has your DD tried the Magistas? My DD has chubby feet and those are the widest cleats Nike offers. Mercurials are only for narrow feet.

Gomes has been one of the best offensive players in the country, the past couple years. Imho.
Although they graduated Hatch and Vasconsuelos, I think they will miss Vasconsuelos the most. She is a truly gifted and well rounded player.
Never the less, BYU will be at or near the top of the conference, and anyone going into Provo this season will be very fortunate to come away with a tie.
Gomes is a great offensive player, but tends to forget about the defensive end of the field.I've gotten to see Gomes up close and she creates opportunities so we will see who steps up for them. I agree about MV. She does so many things well and her departure definitely leaves a big hole to be filled for them. August is going to be interesting.
Do you mean the Ducks? Manny Martins was promoted to Asst head coach. Been there for 3 seasons and they have improved along many metrics. Kids I have known love playing for MM. He is a great coach and mentor type of person. One of the few who makes his kids better/wiser players and people off the field. Sounds corny but it's true.Can someone help me understand the commits to Oregon? They are getting talented kids.
