Soccer is a means to obtain a degree at a cheaper cost. If your kid is smart, they will redshirt their freshman year and use the extra year of eligibility to remain on scholarship while getting masters.

You heard it here first. 😂

Yeah, Tech is fine as a “big, state U” type of school, but not on par with W&M, and the other schools mentioned earlier (Duke, UNC, UVA, Wake).

People need to get out of the state more.

W&M is nice and all but I wouldn’t go there if I lived outside of Virginia. It is a nice school like many others but nothing special.

It’s not Ivy, but it’s consistently a top ~10 public and top 30-40 school in the country.

Which is nice but not “wow”. And coincidentally UNC and UVA are both ranked higher.

And UVA is essentially borderline IVY.

UVA, UNC, and W&M are not borderline Ivy.

Exactly. Harvard’s endowments are roughly $40 Billion dollars. To put that in perspective of how much money that is the budget for the State of Virginia is $67 Billion dollars. Yale’s endowments are $30 Billion dollars.

Sure, Harvard and Yale are in a different league. But UVA is absolutely competitive with the lower ivies. UVA’s endowment is $7B which is the same as Cornell and considerably higher than Brown and Dartmouth. When people think of Ivies they are really thinking Yale and Harvard and Princeton which are the top for sure but UVA is right there with the others in just about any category.

Dartmouth and Brown have higher endowments per student and over 40% of UVA's endowment is the medical, law, and graduate business schools, which don't have a single undergraduate.

No, and that doesn't answer the question.

Ummmm, just saw the 07s tied Sporting Delaware last weekend who were in 2nd to last place last year.

Stacked, lol. Please let me know how your foot tastes and when you are able to remove it.

Not surprising. I think everyone has been saying that FCV is going down hill fast. People leaving left and right for ECNL.

Well this is certainly an embarrassing result for such a stacked team.

Perhaps the issue isn't the players but the coaching.

Not buying it.

FCV is the 29th ranked 07 team in the US and Delaware is ranked 614th.

That is some pretty catastrophic coaching to screw up what is likely a huge talent gap otherwise.

If this was 0-0 game I could buy that Delaware just closed ranks defensively and just blocked FCV out but a 4-4 tie suggest a much more open and wild game.

There had to have been a significant number of players missing or this was a celestial event of epic proportions that allowed that many kids on FCV to simultaneously have collectively their worst game on the same day.

^^^This! Good athletes on the team. So so soccer. If they can’t bully ball their opponent, they struggle. Issue is that as the kids get older, the athletic gaps gets smaller at this level of soccer.

Ah the ol' "ranked" argument. The rankings are based on various tournaments played etc. They mean nothing. RECORDS now THAT means something. Ergo - a 4-4 tie

There are strong players on that team who were very successful at other teams and moved to FCV. But if no "system" and style, it's a mess of players each doing their own thing. So a coaching issue. And perhaps Delaware is stronger this year and were successful against a team with no system.

614th to 29th is a pretty big gap. League play is incorporated. Delaware has played in WAGS, Jeff Cup and FC Delco this year.

So Delaware is either underrated or FCV is vastly overrated. Either way they have been in the same events and league.

Last year Delaware lost to FCV 13-0 and 4-1 to now 4-4. That is a hell of an improvement for Delaware.

Are we talking the same DE team that lost 1-2 against FCGB and tied 2-2 against Loudoun’s b team at the end of May 2021? That is a hell of an improvement by DE, or a really poor performance by FCV.
