Amid chaos and uncertainty, U.S. Soccer and Hudson take the long view in promising January camp

As January camps go, the 2023 edition was like no other for the U.S. men's national team.

For one, it was an abbreviated version, lasting all of eight days as opposed to the multiweek slogs of years past. While there was always going to be a focus on youth with this squad, 12 players made their international debuts during this get-together that included matches against Serbia and Colombia, breaking the record of eight set back in 2006.

Then there was the fact that the U.S. were managed on an interim basis by Anthony Hudson.
