I wonder what changed from last month when he stated he couldn’t afford to run for it?

Don't know, but I'm 100% behind this move... Dude is sharp, and would do a good job I'd think

He seems like a really sharp guy. I would be ok with this.

The more candidates the better. Keep ramping up the pressure on US Soccer. I can tolerate Sunil being involved in the World Cup bid, but we can't allow him to win reelection as president. It's time for new blood and new ideas. The status quo ain't working.

I'm looking forward to seeing more about Kyle's plan, but man he's saying a lot of good stuff in this early stage... I hope his plan backs that up

If our Men’s National Team fails to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, I will do the right thing and step aside. (I will do the same if we miss the quarterfinals in 2026.) Likewise for the Women, but with a higher standard: the semifinal round in all international tournaments from 2023 on.

Yeah, I love that... The easiest way to get something moving in the right direction is to set real, tangible goals for a team, he's done this here

Good for him

Does it say who all will be part of his group? Sounds like he wins, this isn't just a spot for him, i think he has people to change a lot of things from bottom to top.

Would be nice to see all levels under 1 leadership and 1 plan

Not yet, but I'm assuming that's coming with this plan he's supposed to release in the coming weeks

The hero we need, but probably don't deserve.

Not sure I agree with that.

If anything, more candidates makes it easier for someone like Gulati to win.
