Daily News | New U.S. Soccer sporting director Matt Crocker shows what he knows — and what he doesn’t
Will Crocker take the lead on recruiting or delegate it to someone else, perhaps another new hire?
Later in the call, a reporter presented Crocker with statistics on the Latino population’s representation on U.S. youth national teams. At times over the years it’s been good, and at times it’s been bad. On other subjects, Crocker definitely hit the right notes. He went into deep detail about the U.S. men’s team’s performance at last fall’s World Cup, and discussed how he’ll lead hiring the next U.S. men’s national team manager. Though he won’t officially start with U.S. Soccer until Aug. 2, Southampton has given Crocker permission to start that task now, and to assist the U.S. women’s team as it preparese for the World Cup..
