#660: Mike Woitalla on the coaches' convention

Woitalla, the executive editor of Soccer America, joined the pod
after going to Philadelphia for the United Soccer Coaches
Convention. At the event, Matt Crocker said there's still too
much yelling in youth soccer, Roberto Martinez was gobsmacked by
a Barry Pauwels presentation, Tony Lepore discussed plans to grow
the ranks of talent scouts, and US Soccer, for the second
straight convention, made a strong effort to be present and
accounted for.
