    Who is the next big USMNT dual national, will Canada eventually take over Concacaf, and more listener questions

    Taylor and Travis do their best to answer your listener question! Who is the next dual-national that could help the national team that wasn't involved in our youth national teams? Here's a link to the Kim McCauley article I mentioned: https://www.sbnation.com/2020/3/19/21183601/building-a-better-usmnt-together-football-manager-fm20 Why don't we see more college coaches making the jump like they do in football or basketball? What are the best non MLS-affiliated USDA programs? Who's the best classic target forward coming through the ranks that's not already a pro? If Liga MX and MLS combine at some point down the line, what will that look like and is it a good thing for American players? Has there been any hint that NWSL clubs are going to launch concerted academy initiatives? What do you think of the sleeping giant that is the Canadian men's national team? If Don Garber tasked you with selecting the locations for the next MLS expansion teams, where do you put them and why? Why does the Olympics only allow for the U23 men to play but there is no age restriction for the women's team? Do you think this is open to changing? Are there athletic scholarships for NAIA?
