With the recent “coaching change”: at RSL, and with the ongoing watch over other MLS coaches, I’ve been thinking about who might make good replacement coaches in the MLS. One source that I realized that I don’t know enough about are the USL1 coaches. I thought it would be worth doing the research—and then sharing it here.
Here are the current coaches:
| Team | Coach |
|---|---|
| Atlanta Silverbacks | Jason Smith |
| California Victory | Glenn Van Straatum |
| Carolina RailHawks | Scott Schweitzer |
| Charleston Battery | Mike Anhaeuser |
| Miami FC | Chiquinho de Assis |
| Minnesota Thunder | Amos Magee |
| Montreal Impact | Nick De Santis |
| Puerto Rico Islanders | Toribio Rojas |
| Portland Timbers | Gavin Wilkinson |
| Rochester Raging Rhinos | Laurie Calloway |
| Seattle Sounders | Brian Schmetzer |
| Vancouver Whitecaps | Bob Lilley |
Not listed are a couple of other names tied with both the recent USL1 and MSL are:
- Colin Clarke (who coached the now defunct Virginia Beach Mariners)
- Chris Agnello (who coached the Portland Timbers last year and was closely associated with Utah Soccer before that)
I'll follow up with more information about these coaches (as I have time to research and write things up). In the meantime, feel free to leave your comments about any and all of them.
