[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this is a bit general but want to hear from people played or have kids who played in college.

What is a "typical" D1 male player? A starter on a winning ECNL national team by Freshman/Sophomore year in HS?  A good player on a MLS next year?

What about D3?  A starter on a winning ECNL RL team by freshman/sophomore year of HS?

My son is in 6th grade and is a top player on his NCSL D1 team right now. We never thought about playing in college before but he improved a lot recently.[/quote]

[b]A typical D1 player right now will go to college around age 20 and come from international academies. They are big, with international training, and they are older. The percentage of international D1 players is going up every year on the men’s side. [/b]

D3 is different. D3 now gets the kids who five years ago would have been D1 recruits. [/quote]

+100

With the new transfer rules (don't have to sit out a year) there are many more of those too.  I agree.  The teams are older.  Lots of Covid graduate students on current rosters too.[/quote]
