Real Value Creation vs. Solutions That Just Sound Good — for US Soccer
About this episode
Neil Crawford analyzes various proposed solutions for improving American soccer after the World Cup exit using a value creation framework.
Everyone has a theory for fixing American soccer after the World Cup exit. Parents. Pundits. Ex-players. Talking heads on every panel. All-star teams. Corporate-backed academies. Pro/rel. I've heard them all — and I used to nod along too. Then I ran them through a framework I built to test whether an idea actually creates value, or just sounds good while moving money around. What I found changed how I look at every "solution" being pitched for US soccer right now. I break it all down in this episode — and I don't think you'll hear these ideas the same way again.
