Mosconi Cup USA Selection changed.
- Thread starter bfdlad
- Start date
+1 Correct. That is why Mark Wilson is most suitable captain, he employs some professional and scientific management techniques
Thanks for the clarif
Aside from the change to rankings determination, the big positive is that Mark Wilson is confirmed as captain
Say that to Arnieat the very least NOT SOUND SCOTTISH!
What teams or champions has Mark Wilson coached that have won anything? I am not talking tee ball, or a lesson on how to stand.
I have searched and found nothing, maybe my search skills are lacking.
He sat in the stands like a mummy; his eyes were as big as a deer in the headlights. He looked to be in awe of his surroundings, caught up in the moment. Shane did more coaching than him.
Wilson had months with a plan, and Navy Seals (Give me a break)
Team Euro said they had a few days together before the Mosconi Cup.
Johan Ruijsink as coach had a week at best from what I understand.
I agree great players do not make a great team.
I have plenty experience myself locally and nationally, and not tee ball.
Just my opinion,
Mark Wilson is overrated all the way around.
The people running the show need a changing of the guard.
The Mosconi Cup is more a disaster now than it has ever been.
The Olympic Committee views pool like beer pong.
Win or lose, all of us pool players will be watching next year throwing our opinions around, starting with myself.
Lindenwood University
Substitute Dennis Hatch for Corey Deuel and you'd have the exact same team that lost 11-2 in 2013.I hope the best in USA can be in Mosconi team
My Dream Team USA
Earl Strickland (Team Captain)
Johny Archer
Rodney Morris
Corey Deuel
Shane Van Boening
Coach: Mike Sigel or Jim Rempe.
I hope it can be happened this year
I'm not saying that your dream team shouldn't represent the USA in 2015 because I'd actually like to see that lineup as well. However, Earl can not be allowed to act the way he did in 2013. After watching antics throughout the tournament, I completely understand why he wasn't allowed to participate in 2014.
Yes those were the logical, obvious answers given by Luke. It amazes me sometimes how people want to try to make more out of nothing, just to get noticed. When in the end, it simply makes them look stupid for trying to argue about a point that doesn't need to be made.
Some people on this site need to be seen and not heard.
Largely???
There were two young players on the team. If they are unknown to you, then you don't know much about pool.
Oh and one of the young players BY FAR played better than anyone else on Team USA throughout the competition.
Why don't you just ask the question that you really want to know?
What I think you are asking is that are there any players who are on a secret list
whom Matchroom or Mark Wilson would not want to participate in their events for reasons other than nationality.
If Earl, Rodney, Dennis, Johnny, Oscar, Brandon, Jeremy finish in the first three of the MRUS Rankings then they would be pretty certain to play.
But it might be different when it comes to picking the two wild cards.
I guess I did ask the right question, as you answered it.
Thank You, pro9dg
I haven't answered your question. I am merely offering my opinion. But thanks anyway.

Well Earl now not same as he do in late 90's and early 2000's.
I doubt Rodney and Earl will join Mosconi team this year.
and Mark Wilson maybe do same again like last Year.
I hope i wrong
That much I did research.
I did not count this as a premier coaching job for reasons why. The players on that team spot him the 5 out, he didn't mold them.
Lindenwood sophomore Landon Shuffett broke a 2-year old record of 117, set by his teammate Sean Sommers in 2012. But Landon's 118 was short-lived, as freshman Tanner Nickels recorded the first perfect score in UMTPC history just moments later.
I am not witch hunting, if there are going to be claims of greatness I want to see the proof. If he took a team of beginners or hackers I would say that was great work.
I give him 1 star.
Our problem is the overall crappy attitude we as Americans have.
Just look around at what we are breeding as a nation, a bunch of self centered, self entitled, Spoiled, disrespectful, twitter, facebook, look at me; look at me I am special attitudes.
The good ole kick in the butt or slap in the mouth days for being disrespectful days are over.
