[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best players are picking the best academic schools which is why Stanford, Duke etc do so well. The best players are not picking Alabama. [/quote] Then why aren't the Ivy's all top ten soccer programs? They are also D1. [/quote] We have wondered the same thing. We are finding Ivy recruiting to be a bit of a black box even compared to peer academic schools..…..[/quote] The Ivies (not Ivy's) can't necessarily get the best soccer players because their athletes also have to meet very high academic standards. The best soccer recruits might not be good enough academically for an Ivy. Plus, the Ivies compromise on standards for athletes less than their "peer" academic schools (e.g., Stanford, Duke) where sports are simply more important. [/quote]
