Good points from a Coach's perspective.
The next question is: Once you've assembled and developed all the right versatile "buttons" to push, who's doing the pushing?
I could easily argue that Sundhage -- an immensely popular PLAYERS' coach -- is not the right person to take our WNT to another level. To me, she was clearly the right coach in the wake of the 2007 WWC debacle ... an outsider and a healer, who implied a fresh start.
This is NOT to say she should be released. Or that she is the "wrong" coach to move forward. But I'm curious, does anyone else have the sense that "status quo" in the coach's area won't be good enough four years from now?
As a coach, what do you think?
