Men's soccer is 0-4?

The players he brought in were transfers from Jr. college or only using this program as a spring board to pro.  He was successful, that not the issue.  He brought in highly skilled players but they were not, repeat not Bulls.  Meaning they did not feel a stake in the program.   Different mindset on how to be successful.  Kiefer's worked, now Bob's is a different approach and will take time. 

Kentucky hoops has worked pretty well with that approach. I sure like the idea of bringing in "highly skilled players." That's not the approach of the current staff?

Not true, just younger and not fully developed as players.  JR college players have more experience at a higher level then Freshman/Sophomores. He is trying to building them up and give himself a large stable of players.

I'm definitely willing to give him time - as I am with most of the staffs on campus. Let's just hope he's up to the task because that's been a good program for a pretty long time.

My son played competitive soccer for eight years and his FishHawk teams were always pretty well aligned with USF. Lots of camps, clinics etc by USF' s coaches and Keifer himself. He was a great coach and players liked playing for him. USF was a well respected program for most of George's time at USF so not sure why some folks are knocking his success.

The only concern I heard was that he didn't recruit hyper local. Many quality kids didn't get offers as he did well at attracting international players.

Jury is still out on the new guy....

I don't know who brought them in but there are about 8 countries represented on the current team.  Maybe George's kids, maybe not. Haven't looked at that.
