The Colorado Rapids just announced that former interim head coach Steve Cooke has accepted a position as the Head Coach & Technical Director for Oklahoma City Energy FC in the USL. Since Anthony Hudson was hired, Pádraig Smith had told us that Cooke was staying on as an assistant coach.
In the official press release, Smith said: “Although we are sad to see Steve go, we could not be more excited for him as he begins this new journey in his coaching career. Steve’s involvement with our Academy and our first-team has been a true asset and we’re thankful for his dedication and devotion to our club.
