[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why wouldn’t TM or WLC brag up their new recruits like any school program would . . . E.g., “We get students from NYC to Seattle.”[/quote]

Partial because with all of the 24-25 rosters on the tier 2 program websites, it would become obvious that many of the new recruits were 2nd liners on their old AA teams and not true AAA talent.[/quote]

Wow, what a rude thing to say, and based on the kids I know, not true at all.[/quote]

Don't get me wrong, you can build a solid team by putting together the 4th and 5th best players of every AA team in the area plus a few first liners, since you get good average talent. But it's not a AAA level team, which is why TM and WLC play AA in legit tournaments like Quebec Peewee.

If you took every eligible player in the area at a birth year, ranked them, then equally split the top ones onto two equal teams (WLC and TM), you'd have pretty solid teams. But that never happens, so many of the best players stick on AA rosters because WLC and TM are not convenient and haven't historically had the best development models.[/quote]
