Ok --- how many?

I would say writing on the wall that they were out. Many many 07 teams had over 100 coaches the first two days based on twitter posts.

DB will coach that team. Of course he would get on the phones with his former players along with any other player he can grab. It’s his MO.

You would have to be the dumbest family in the world to pick DB over CW if you had an offer for both. Just like you would to chose Arlington who is winning now (like they always do at the young age groups). CW has developed more pro players than those coaches have developed players playing in college.

But what about the 9 yr olds he recruited to be the fastest and most athletic at U10? Surely that kind of coaching will translate to the big field?

Wow, $5 mil a year and still have time for this forum. maybe we all should go to wherever it is you went and spend time trolling with 'IDIOT'IC replies...

Not OP and DD not at either of these clubs but yes, the look that kids got on brave is similar to Union. Any ECNL team gets a ton of exposure. What you do with it is yours. DD played a game with 125 scouts at an Ecnl showcase. Many might have been there for the other team. She had an outstanding game. Received more than 20 calls from schools she had not been in contact with. ECNL get you the exposure. Would you rather be on Union than Brave if the travel time was the same. Of course. Was there more exposure at Union, of course. But Brave got plenty of exposure.

+1000000
My DD plays Brave and the colleges these kids are writing to are attending their games including US Scouts - all the big conference teams attended and contacted coaches. I am honestly shocked how arrogant PP statement is. I really hope this parent leaves for another club because I can already hear his elitist commentary on the sidelines. Ick!

Yes, the college coaches are watching lots of teams, but if you don’t think club coach connections matter you are deceiving yourself. College coaches see lots of players but will rely on club coaches they know and trust and that is what will land the plane and result in actual offers and placement. This is true across all sports.

No the club coaches do almost nothing. Most colleges coaches do not even reach out to club coaches before making a commit. Like 90%. If your experience was different then good for you but not that way at most clubs. Where club coaches do help is if you come up dry on your own and end junior year without a commit. Then yes club coaches make calls and really market you. Not earlier junior year though. Again -- if you have that you have something special that is not in wide use.

Wow. Just wow. You have really been short-changed in the process then. Our club's experience (FCV) was very different.

CW is cooked. Legendary figure but everyone has sell by date and with all due respect the rollout of this merger demonstrates how little influence he is currently having there.

Zero, the answer is zero.

To turn down an offer from CW is a poor choice indeed. His players show consistent and stunning growth every year.

Just a dumb comment. We are talking about CW as a coach and you bring up a rollout of a merger. Who cares about the rollout? The best players come together and you get some new uniforms.

And you responded, spoken like someone who should be congratulated on the McBrave offer in hand. Not sure why you are here amongst the trolls. Confidence wavering maybe 🤔

NVA is ahead of Union in the 07/08/09 groups, all of which CW was involved involved in coaching. The 11's team he's currently coaching just lost to NVA 3-1 less than a month ago. Please tell us again how his history when they were the only game in town should be more heavily weighted than the results of this so called stunning growth for the last 4 age groups he's coached?

It’s obvious to most that CW is on his way out. He is only listed as an assistant coach for the girls side for FVU. This is a nice way to let him ride off into the sunset. In a few years you all will be praising MV. Classy move KJ.

And it’s an absolute nightmare for playing time. I can’t believe people would stick around to play for FXU given all of the stuff that’s revolved and the fact that it’s 50/50 if your child will even have an ECNL team to play for in two years…and that’s for both boys and girls! Just ask BRYC, VYS, Brave…and yes, now you Union.
