How about all the ECNL coaches here posting on this forum focus more on their clubs instead of focusing on SYC having GA. Clearly ppl here are afraid or mad SYC now has GA.

Why would anyone be mad that SYC has GA?

If Syc 2012s snag a few more players from ECNL teams, they will be the most dominant team.

Believe it or not, some parents/kids would rather win a national championship in GA than struggle every season on a mid tier ECNL team

This is 100% correct.

When it comes to recruiting Playing in GA finals gets more eyeballs than not going to finals in ECNL.

Ummmm no. ECNL Florida and Arizona have more coaches than GA finals.

If you are in Ecnl winning is not the object. It is getting seen by and committing to college. So no you would rather be in a mid Ecnl team where every kid commits as opposed to an even top ga team.

GA is great. No one is mad that syc got it. They are a good club and will do well with it. It does offer an opportunity for a number of people. Good addition to local soccer. Good option. But let’s don’t go crazy. You might have picked FCV over Ecnl in the past but now if you had the choice and can get to one of the clubs you would be better off on an Ecnl club.

Right, because Brave, Beach, Pipeline, Arlington, NC Fusion, NC Youth among others are absolutely killing it when it comes to getting recruited. :sarcasm:

I think it maybe important for people to remember it’s about what your club program does, how connected the director is. The encl and ga give you the most visibility but without a good director and coach with connections it’s not gonna work

It is everywhere in all of the state forums all over the internet. They each reference each other proof. There is someone REALLY bored that thinks he is funny. Hopefully he gets the help he needs

Beginning to feel like we were duped.
I see someone called out the college soccer truth guy on his tweet. Asking for him to be transparent

I think it's funny that the ECNL cultists were duped into believing what the want to hear from 2 posts on X.

Did the ECNL cult show its hand regarding how nervous about GA they really are?

That’s what it seems like. The guy that originally posted the tweet is a ECNL cultist. Every chance to take a jab at GA, he does.

Yes -- these three clubs wanted no part of US Soccer annoucement and demanded to go now.

Based on the way it has happened in past years there will be at least two more announcements each of 1-3 clubs.
