$447: Emma Hayes to take over USWNT (reportedly)

Greg, Vince, Tara and Belz talk through the surprise of the weekend, first reported by Joe Lowery at Backheeled, that Chelsea manager and arguably the best coach in women's soccer Emma Hayes has agreed to terms with the USSF to coach the women's national team. We talk about her background, her ideas about American soccer development, the ways she is likely to manage the WNT and the as yet unclear transition for her from Chelsea to USA.
