Where is Andres Deza

Like a few of you mentioned, I'm hearing it's a done deal as well. Surf even let go or the former girls DOC left as well. I heard it could start very soon and not end of the spring. To be fair, it's a great move. Back in the top league in ECNL and at one of the best clubs in the nation with top facilities in a beautiful city. Sure will be interesting who will be in charge at FC BA and can they keep lots of the talent there.
 
No offense @crush but you don't know NorCal. There are good coaches up here. You only hear about Deza because he had the platform with the GDA to make noise. Gary Ireland, Albertin Montoya, Shaun Tsakiris, Hugo Perez, Troy Dayak, Jeff Baicher, Omar Cervantes, Juan Porras, Mohamed, and so many others that if were given the opportunity to run an ECNL program, would build great programs.

many of the names mentioned had a chance to make a splash but didn't make the impact that they had hoped. Only stand outs on this list is Montoya (MVLA) and Mohamded (Lamo) who have done well. Baichder has also did well with DA/Thorns
 
310 brah, if it's a done deal, I will give you high marks on grape vine gossip and will take all your rumors to be real until proven wrong. I have insiders and no one said a peep. Great job and if true, then I expect some natty's coming for that club. He teaches possession and it's the best way to play. Way less injuries.

people who say they have insiders usually don't, but say that to make themselves feel important. Quit flossing...

That would be crazy if he left! Surf has an amazing brand in Socal. Throw AD with that club??? man...could spell trouble for other clubs. Biggest thing that would change is the way they play and the players selected. AD doesn't just take any kick and run player...they have to be pretty technically sound or have a tremendous upside. A lot of Surf teams are very direct with little possession. If he does take over, look for a completely different style of play...should be interesting to see what happens
 
Honest question bro and please be honest with the, "what if game" I would like to play with you. Would you drive one hour to be trained by him or any great one? If yes, how far is too far to train to be the best?
I know a player who moved out of state, in with relatives to play for the Quakes. Crazy stuff. Have no idea where she is now but the point is that parents do crazy things when reaching for the stars..

Hey Hoops Coach, I should have said, "had." No one talks to me in soccer coach. I no nothing, never mind me. I do no that Surf just picked up the #1 coach in the country when it some to teaching possession. This is how you stop all the major injuries in girls soccer. I will support this coach.

I'm not satire here. I watched Deza team up close and they played from the back. No punting allowed which for my dd, is way safer. I never and I mean never saw him punt on 4th down. We did the same back in the day. When goats are younger and pass back, they will make mistakes. After 11 years watching cringeworthy rugby, I think it's time to mandate no punting allowed until last 5 minutes for girls soccer.
 
After 11 years fellas, we ALL need Mulligans, some more than others. Today, I will put all my pain aside and just live fearlessly today. No time to hold grudges guys against coaches. At the end of the day, we're all trying to to be better, right? Let's all teach with mercy. I'll start first. I forgive US Soccer and GDA and accept that most were just trying to be a coach in tough environments around each town with competitive clubs. I turned over a new leaf and ready to forgive always.

I forgot to put the smiley face...my bad...was just trying to have fun with the rumor mill ;)
 
Yeah, I threw up in my mouth a little when I saw that name. Maybe his wife is posting?

My recollection from the old norcal forum is that your daughter was on the old Juventus 04/05 team, right? Out of curiosity, how many of those girls are still playing/playing at a high comp level? I remember that team (through club changes) being the strongest California 04/05 team during the early years, and am curious about changes in development as kids grow older (does a strong ulittle player translate into a strong player when older, same positions, etc.). It might make an interesting case study.

That Juventus 04/05 team was unreal.

Yes, you are correct, YIF. From the Juventus 04/05 based on my most recent knowledge known, this is what I know.

Top Team: 6 - Positions are pretty much the same. One was splitting time in goal and field but is full-time in the field now. One played primarily mid-field but now plays defense regularly.
2 Stanford commits, 1 UCLA, 1 LMU, and 2?

Top Club, 2nd Team: 1

Not playing: 4 - One left soon after Juventus and focused on softball. One stopped 2-3 years ago and is playing other sports (boxing?). One left about a year and a half ago while still getting time with the top team as well as older teams to focus on academics. I wouldn't be surprised to see her at Stanford based on academics and individual research.
