Two things: 1. WF is not a power 5 team 2. And just because they have the money doesn't mean that kid got any of it. It's not automatic, even if your daddy did work there. |
Parents lie. There is no way to verify anything. |
Why so bitter? Power 5 refers to ACC, Big 10, Big 12, PAC 12, and SEC. |
|
If you are financial paying more than the school, you are still in a pay to play model….but at a college level
If the school contributes more than you, you’re essentially a “professional athlete.” |

How can you honestly contribute when you didnt know WF is a Power 5.
This conversation isn’t for you. Go to the 08 thread |
how can anyone honestly contribute when all you can do is assume the scholarship money provided to any child? Nothing on this forum is honest. Get a life. This isn't a documentary. |
WF costs over $70k per year. Why would any school pay that much to a person just to play soccer there? Not happening. |
It’s paying for education, not pay to play soccer. Soccer is just an activity done while there. Like a sorority or semester in Europe |
+1. |
+1 Completely agree |
1. You didn’t know WF was ACC and this a Power 5. 2. No you’re assuming that I’m assuming. Parents talk. Kids talk. Yes, some may over-hype it..but almost none under-hype it….and from what I’m seeing, the majority of Power 5 commits are receiving way below 50 percent athletic scholarships. The kids that commit early in the process are receiving the most. (Both Power 5 and non-Power 5) Look at Topdrawer soccer. Look at the current Class of 2023 commits as they roll in. I would venture to guess that those listed are your 75 percent and above athletic scholarship kids. Now, if you sit patiently |
It is pretty well understood that full rides for women's soccer are extremely rare and at a Power 5 schools are reserved exclusively for regular National Team players. The money has always been and will always be spread around nearly the entirety of the team. |
Keep Guessing. No one cares what you guess. Real kids with real scholarship money keep their mouths closed about the amount. I'll wait. |
Take a look at the roster - It's simple math International kids get 100% every time.. required for VISAs Subtract those kids from the 14 scholarships, and look at how many kids are on the roster. Not a lot of full rides going on. |
Has your child been recruited? What was your experience? |
