[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The idea of STJ suddenly going “homegrown” is… certainly ambitious. Especially considering their, shall we say, limited success with younger teams, the absence of a Fields pipeline, and a developmental history that doesn’t exactly inspire confidence on the boys’ side.
 For example SYC is quietly sitting higher in four of the six age groups (with their B teams) and working with a noticeably stronger player pool seems far more realistically positioned for something like a second homegrown (MLS1) platform. Not that SYC is necessarily asking for one, of course.

So perhaps it might be a good time for STJ   
to take a small step back and reconsider whether this particular vision is truly the hill worth climbing and something that make sense with facts.. [b]STJ  needs to earn their stripes in MLS2 for atleast 2-3 years winning 4-5 age groups to be considered homegrown division.[/b]

I have nothing to do with STJ but you equate winning with development?

SYC has had the numbers for years and wins but has only produced 1 MLS player I believe.

If TSJ has a blueprint for developing players, other than the pathetic parental view of choosing a club based on the rankings app, why wouldn’t they get a shot at homegrown if they proved they have a plan and the resources?

Development could be taking an EDP-level player and bringing them up to a Homegrown level player.

Winning has nothing to do with development so your argument is immature at best.
