I think he's running a baseline model, of a fairly complex system to be honest. Hopefully this year we'll identify the true 30 players who will contend for a spot in 2022.  Once some of these fringe players start getting on the field with 10 other guys who know their movements better they'll hopefully start processing the game more organically.

Most people have been asking for a more modern style from the US for the last two cycles and for coaches with a much more complex scheme than this one.  Now that one of the simplest models of it is finally here, we're seeing there are growing pains -- you can basically scrap it and go back to what we're used to or accept that we'll need to fight and claw our way through games as we learn it to get to the next level.

We'd all love to see a team with a flowing possession and complex defensive trapping scheme where we try to make our opponent move the ball to where we want rather than prevent them from moving the ball to where they want, but what I think most people want to see run is calculus -- we're only learning trigonometry here.  It's gonna take time.
