Coach,

What do you think of getting Kuiper and PN on your show for a preseason discussion of all things D3 soccer 2024?

LOVE the idea.  @Kuiper, you up for it?

Had the chance to speak with Andrew Wu, Athletic Director at Goucher College.

A Special SimpleCoach to Coach with Andrew Wu, Athletic Director at Goucher College.

This seems like a really odd career move, from AD at Goucher to interim AD at Maryville?

I wonder if there is a Singleton-like explanation relating to family or spousal reasons for the move to an interim position

There's apparently some behind the scenes issues with this. https://x.com/davemchugh/status/1821958559053066294?s=46&t=OqeN1Z6W2yD7EE5LiIugtA

If this is true, it is shocking.

Just recorded this.  Wanted to do something as players are reporting on campus.

Just did a summary of my impressions on week one.  Good bad and ugly.

This one is a head scratcher.  Lots of love for teams that have 1 and 2 losses in this early season. Not sure if this top 25 passes a test of reasonableness

How is it so unreasonable?

Lots of Hopkins and F&M love on here @EasyGoer. Get used to it. Dips have three ties including 0-1-2 Lynchburg. Granted they may be here by the end of the year, not now. Hopkins 2-2 gets handled by Rowan, who lost to Salisbury, but still at 11? Centennial looks like it's gonna be a great race again this year. Swat and Dickinson off to great starts and Wash will figure things out. But we're commenting about it, right? So great discussion starter. Go Mules!

Hopkins lose to Kenyon with 8 seconds left.  Rowan, yes, bad result.  But still a pretty good start.  But as I have said, Rowan is a team to watch.

F&M has ties against Lynchburg, Rowan and Kenyon.  That isn't too shabby against some great teams. That said, they need to win.  I mean, even when they made the finals, think the highest I ever had Williams was 11th... I think.

Swarthmore looks like they are having a decent start.  But lets see where they are at the beginning of October if they are serious.

Dickinson hasn't really played anyone of note... Messiah on Wednesday.  Just because a team wins 4 games, doesn't get them in my rank.  If that is the case, should WPI US Coast Guard, Hamline (6-0), Wabash, St. Mary's, Bard, and Thiel be added to the Top 25?

And maybe there is a lovefest on the boards, but not for me.  Been critical of Hopkins lack of final third discipline and how it gets them in trouble... like against Rowan.  That said, when they are tuned in, they are very good.  And ... I said F&M played Neanderthal Ball for the longest of time.

When you buy the ink, I guess you can rank however you want. Wins and losses are discreet data points, regardless of how founded your opinions claim to be. 2 losses in 4 games will rank no one in the top 15 of any serious polling......

[SKUD]

I think we need a fan top 25 thread so those who question SC can show their work. 

I stopped questioning and enjoy seeing a difference of opinion. We all have our favorites as well as teams we don't like and it shows in our polls.

[SimpleCoach]

Buy the ink?  Yeah, that's what the SC Global Multimedia Empire does...

I've said it before and I will say it again. I will give anyone who wants to do a weekly poll a place on the website and if they want to do a weekly show.  No problem with it.

Just email.
