Grant Wahl: JK was told by US Soccer that he’s out if he doesn’t get six points

What happened to this? This was from Sports Illustrated's Grant Wahl on November 10th. Could this still hold water?

USMNT doesn't have an competitive match until March 25th. This would be a perfect window with the January camp and almost 4 months total to work in a new mananger.

Well, there was what I would call “an informed rumor” (i.e., multiple connected sources, but without direct knowledge) going around that Klinsmann has been told by U.S. Soccer that he’s out if he doesn’t get six points this week at home against St. Vincent and the Grenadines and away at Trinidad and Tobago. But that was denied to me by everyone I spoke to with direct knowledge of the situation (Then again, none of those people would want that out there anyway).
