[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think many clubs question the long term commitment of the MLS to running anything more than their own academies. This maybe a very short league before things change again. [/quote] +1 When a league is the secondary business entity (USSF with DA and now with MLS) then it will never be resourced properly for the long-term. Let's not forget that these academies only produce around 20ish MLS players a year. [/quote] They many only produce 20 MLS players a year but they produce 90% of the NCAA Division 1 soccer players.[/quote] What percentage of those 90% go on to MLS teams? Is this really just about college opportunities wrapped inside the allure of MLS/International contracts which have an extremely low chance of success? Sounds the same as what USSF offered.[/quote]
