The Crooks Conversations

Glenn brings the same insight, honesty, and passion that made him a fixture in American soccer, offering lessons in leadership, resilience, player development, and the art of seeing the game clearer than the rest.

Put It On Frame soccer coaching book by Glenn Crooks

Volume 1

The sideline stories every coach wishes were written down.

The first installment of The Crooks Conversations, Put It on Frame unpacks what separates good teams from elite ones through stories from Emma Hayes, René Meulensteen, Mikey Varas, and more.

The story continues

Put It on Frame is only the beginning.

Volume 1 opened the doors to elite coaching minds and untold stories from the sport’s most influential voices.

But one book was never enough to hold a lifetime of lessons.

Volume 2 and Volume 3 are already on the way.

More conversations.
More locker room honesty.
More tactical depth.
More lessons that don’t live anywhere else.

Each volume of The Crooks Conversations will dig deeper into:

The evolution of the modern game

Coaching philosophies that built winning teams

Player development, leadership, and culture

The moments the world didn’t see, but the game will never forget

This series isn’t just about soccer.

It’s about the people, the decisions, the psychology, the craft, and the environments that turn teams into legacies.
