Next Chicago Fire Coach? Jesse March An Early Favorite
Frank Klopas may have the title right now, but that doesn't mean he'll be the Chicago Fire's next permanent head coach. Among the others to warrant mentioning as possible candidates by Hot Time in Old Town are former United States national team star Eric Wynalda, longtime Fire defender CJ Brown and deposed Toronto FC gaffer Preki. But the man who is deemed the early favorite is local boy Jesse March:
Pros: Jesse Marsch is from Chicago’s backyard in Racine, Wisconsin. He was part of the 1998 Chicago Fire expansion team that won the U.S. Open Cup and the MLS Cup. This Midwestern guy embodies the hard-working and gritty nature that the successful Chicago Fire teams have had. He has been an assistant coach with the USMNT since February 5, 2010. In that role, Marsch has worked directly with former Chicago Fire head coach and USMNT head coach Bob Bradley in the 2010 World Cup and several USMNT friendlies.
