if a texas program isn't successfully getting players in their own backyard from one of the top club programs in the country, they will never be more than a mid program

My guess is if there is a coaching change you will see girls portal back….

If past is prologue both players will land well and have impact at new programs that maximize their talent. Interestingly, both are Solar players, whose alumni have not faired well at A&M, but have thrived at other programs like TCU, Texas, Alabama, etc. Solar's technical, possession oriented and play through the midfield style of play is the opposite of kickball. Boeckmann, Hayes and Geszik (who barely saw the field) all left for teams that made the tournment, playing key starting roles at each. I expect both of these players to do the same.
well said. Yolinsky was one of the better recruits we've landed in the past few years. And every time Coach G cried about injuries (especially goal scorers) we all thought of Yolinsky being out. Now we're just supposed to be act like losing her is okay. We need to ask ourselves why so many of our girls are always hurt?

I wonder if we will be wearing funeral attire the next two weeks. Man, how much longer will we have to put up with this mediocrity?

It's hard for me to think more would leave, but at this point nothing surprises me. I was clearly one of the loudest voices waiting for a new coach to be announced all winter, but not even I imagined the portal damage would be like this. To lose Calzada, Armenta, Matula, O Rourke, Becerra, Cornog, Yolinsky, Leb, and Ivey… it's still wild to process

Don't anticipate many more to enter the portal this spring as most the the roster consists of winter transfers...only other one I wouldn't be surprised by is verona.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking, nobody aside from Fuller or Jernigan even played enough to have film to transfer out. I'm sure we'll add some pieces, but nothing major

I sometimes look at an "X" page called "ECNL/GA/Recruiting/CollegeSoccer" and it lists 88 D1 players, including 31 from Power 4 schools, who have stated their intent to enter the portal, and the page says they expect over 200 more to enter.

Noble led Fullerton in goals scored and points last year. She also scored 2 game winners during the season.

Scranton is a defensive middle and logged the 4th most minutes for CBU last year as a sophomore.

She also would have been recruited by our assistant coach Seth Taylor and played at CBU for him for a season. So, he is familiar with what she will bring to our squad.

Well, this will be interesting. Becerra, Leb and Cornog all transferred to TCU. This Fall's contest should be an interesting test of which university is best at utilizing player talent.

I'm sure we'll see them at their best… I'm also curious if we keep the same type of pre conference schedule or substitute them for lighter small conference teams

Wonder if we get Vanderbilt, having to play a backline of Margo Matula and Adysen Armenta should be interesting

Only SFA and TCU made the tourney last season. I know we needed to load up on weaker teams to collect wins cause we know the SEC will be a gauntlet. Have to be above .500 for the NCAA tourney. But that might be out of reach… lots of home games to start the season. We lost to UCONN 6-0 last year and lost to Denver at home. Baylor and TCU will obviously be tougher, can't afford slips ups to these Southland schools!

Add UConn to that list of NCAA Tourney teams. They won their first game and lost at Stanford 2-1 in the round of 32.

By RPI:

17 - @ TCU
29 - vs UConn
70 - vs Baylor
87 - @ Denver
89 - vs Texas St.
101 - @ SFA
180 - vs Lafayette
224 - Lamar


That is actually a pretty solid non-conference. 6 of the 8 are top 101 teams. It should be good for RPI. Last year we had a really bad bottom end of the schedule with dogs like:

302 Central Connecticut
311 Louisiana Tech

You already know he has excuses in his back pocket. He's gonna blame the portal, he's gonna blame other coaches poaching his roster illegally, his favorite classic "they just didn't find the back of the net," we're too young, we're too inexperienced, he'll blame the refs, he'll call out the girls, say he needs better girls, but it won't ever be his fault, never… but that's also if he doesn't skip his post game interviews this year

Also what does it say as a program when we're trying to justify a non conference schedule with 6 mid major teams and only 2 power 4 teams and one of them took 3 of our girls and the other had a losing record… LMAO just one more season folks

So, we have TCU and Baylor as P4 opponents before we give ourselves credit for a very good UConn opponent. Additionally, then we play two mid major top 101 teams on the road in Denver and SFA.

Checking the closest 6 SEC schools 2024 schedules for P4 opponents in the non-conference:

Texas - 3 - Houston, SMU, Iowa
Oklahoma - 1 - Oklahoma St.
LSU - 2- Arizona St., Utah
Mississippi St. - 2- Baylor, Wake Forest
Ole Miss - 1 - Michigan St.
Arkansas - 2 - BYU, Michigan St.

Conclusion: Our 2025 schedule looks like a typical SEC non-conference schedule. Actually, a little tougher and without the awful dead weight at the end of the schedule that we had last year. I think that is what my original post said where I "tried to justify" it.

Unfortunately we aren't good, all our starters left and we replaced them with unranked freshman and mid major players. Those other SEC teams will collect wins in sec play. We probably will struggle to win a game or two. So we'll most likely have a weak RPI regardless of schedule. But I think a goal of about 5 wins will be doable! LETS BTHO THE SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE
