I understand the apprehension at the Discord since it does lack an overall organization into threads like the offsite, or even here onsite. It does however work extremely well for game preps and chats. The offsite isn’t necessarily abandoned, the old training threads and training plans still exist, as do the player database and training estimator. The old site went down and was resurrected in a new form that probably just needs explained where everything is again. I find things at times that I thought were lost too.
Speaking to the accountability of the old regime of managers, a lot of our staff communication died during Sahand’s tenure. By a lot, I really mean all of it. Besides what I pointed out in my speech, a success from my first term was the vast increase in the amount of communication among those involved with the NT. That’s a big reason that I invite you and others there so we can at least help you to the necessary channels for NT involvement, or as I said in my speech to BB-Mail me so I can keep the specific discussions going and continue the regrowth of our community.
To the question of scouting, yes we are. Our offsite has a database where managers are invited to log in so that their USA players are automatically logged and updated. We also have a spreadsheet for use, specifically at the beginning of the season and for communicating pregame lineups, GS, and callup options that I personally update at the beginning of the season. For opposition scouting, the small but growing growing group of managers involved with the NT did well when involved, but growing that number of involved managers is a necessity to continue.
That’s a lot for a response ha but I hope that answered your question/s.

I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs
