[quote=Anonymous]Is it really a disaster? I mean yes, I wish club soccer was not so expensive and the focus on winning at the young age can be over the top, but is the USMNT that bad? I'd say having our best athletes gravitate to football, basketball, baseball tends to water us down some. Also college sports for football and basketball are U21 pro-style systems. Have you watched a doc on Alabama or Florida football programs? They have separate dorms, full time scouts, etc etc. They treat them like pros. There is no "student" athlete in football and basketball. I think the biggest thing to boost the US would simply be for our country to watch more pro soccer so that could trickle down to colleges. Better college soccer and more opportunities there would trickle down. ECNL and MLS next are good programs for top players[/quote]
