you don't know that he hasn't. He runs FCV and has a great track record of getting girls recruited. He probably helped build GA. He's not going to leave. FCV has been around for a long time.

But we do know. My DD plays for FCV and there has been no communication.

Same boat, BP himself has even been vague often dodging the question. No confirmation of FCV retaining him, nor any confirmation of him departing.

This is terrible business. Look out for your DD - do not wait for BP

ECNL teams don’t have tryouts until March.

Back then there was movement of girls between the clubs picking DA or ECNL and a lot of bad blood over it too.

And VDA benefited from their decisions. Their college recruiting is outstanding! When was the last time another kid was committed to Stanford around here? VDA is the place to be.

VDA has nothing to do with this. This girl would be going to Stanford even if she was at Brave. All credit goes to the straight A's baller and YNT prospect that she developed throught mindset. Silly clubs you are a platform, that is all...

I'm familiar with who you're speaking of. People should never be so naive to believe that a club has that much to do with a player being recruited vs what the player brings individually.

Beyond that, the 2006G group that VDA has is their most impressive group. Their performance isn't a direct reflection of being a part of VDA either, that group could be coached by a random parent and it could find success just based on the amount of talent on it. I'm not entirely familiar with how many are directly from their associated clubs but I recall a lot of them came from elsewhere.

5th place and their most impressive group? They have a bunch of teams placed higher than that.

If you can play you have found your new team already, no one with any leverage to play is waiting around for BP trust

Player movement within ECNL is common in high school years.


20 players on VDA 06 roster.
11 of them from PWSI/VSA.
13 of them at VDA since U13.

Can we get back to the point of this whole thread? What's going on next year with BP and FCV?

He is leaving.

I can understand the questions about where FCV will practice next year, but it’s a little much to expect BP to inform everyone of his plans for next year (at this point).

[Anonymous]

BP’s next role probably depends on where MP goes if anywhere. Not really successful or highly rated at GMU but this is the key factor. Still doesn’t solve the field issue as STJ is pushing for movement towards Springfield. FCV is trying to figure out how to pull this without losing most of the current players. My popcorn is ready and curious how this plays out. I for one am not sitting around doing nothing and my DD is probably fortunate enough to have options. The extra drive will suck.
