Who knows if he'll be available in a couple weeks for the qualifiers.
He will be.

And hell yes, soccer over hoops.
World Cup qualifying. US Mexico.
That ranks as something like a 83 out of 100 on pdubs watchable scale.

KUBB v Tareleton is something like a 75.
Orlando Classic round 2 could be in the high 80s.
Mizzou in the mid 90s. Most B12 KUBB games score at least 80.

Self did a short podcast with Wayne Simien. Said the home slate is the best that it's been since he's been here and the first school he mentioned coming to AFH was Missouri. Not Kentucky. Not Texas. Not Baylor. But Missouri.

Hope the US just play well. I'll take a loss if they play well. If they play like the first trio of games, it'll be #GreggOut to the max.

A loss is completely unacceptable. A draw is fine, but a win should be expected. The game is on US soil and there is plenty of talent on this roster even if Dest and Reyna are out and Pulisic isn't starting.

They can still roll out

Robinson - Robinson - Richards - Cannon

McKennie - Adams - Aaronson

Weah - Pepi - Ferreira

**Would love to see Busio and Musah play as well

I think McKennie, Adams and Pepi are locks to start.

The other 3 M/W/F spots are probably a tossup between Aaronson, Weah, Ferreira, Busio and Musah.

Oh, no doubt, but USA is closer to a Creighton or Wichita State than Tarleton State.

USMNT is an “also receiving votes” team.

I agree that Greg will fucks things up by playing MLS trash players
