One of the most influential coaches in American soccer, he has left behind an incredible legacy on how the game should be played. Physically he is no longer with us, but his principles, philosophies and achievements will live on from generation to generation. In 24 seasons as the Wolfpack's head coach, his teams  played an exciting, attacking, South American style of soccer that was familiar to the native Argentinian. It became Tarantini's trademark.

"There is a responsibility that we have to assume, because I think the game deserves to be exciting," said Tarantini, whose brother, Alberto, played in two World Cups for Argentina. "The main reason you want to play attacking soccer is that the players want it, the coaches want it and the fans want it. I don't think [soccer] can be played any other way."

"My role is to have an environment where a player can create and express himself," said Tarantini. "A coach has to recognize strengths and weaknesses, but he should encourage the player to make decisions ... to grow ... to feel ... to play with passion."
