[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you evaluate "doing a great job"?[/quote]

Generally speaking, when your players want to stay and new players from the outside are fighting to make the team.

Specifically, lots of factors and my factors likely have differences from yours and those of other parents.

But if your team/club is facing mass exodus and no one is clamoring to join, maybe that bag of clues from Amazon would help.

As indicated, different people have different factors.  Most in my experience value winning above all else.  If you are the persistent troll here, as it seems based on the “mass exodus” comment, I suspect that includes you.

IMO, the win chasers need the bag of clues from Amazon.  [/quote]

Well we agree on something.  I find the "win chasers", the GotSoccer ranking quoters, the scoreline reporters and the scrimmage analysts generally clueless.  I also, however, find those that become cheerleaders for their club just as foolish.  Spinning and rationalizing in a never-ending fashion.

And regarding the mass exodus comment, mass exodus is never good unless you think all the people leaving are not smart enough to know what is good for them.  Unfortunately, your comments come off a bit like someone that thinks they know everything and who's job it is to make sure you let everyone else know what is good for them.

Not buying into that.  Sorry.[/quote]

And that's OK; you come off as someone who only looks at results to determine the worth of an environment.  If you look at the whole of this thread, there is no spinner singing praises of MU.  People acknowledge the challenges along with the positives.

Creating a perception that all MU players aren't worthwhile just because of the W-L records and scorelines is way off the mark.  This shows in the recruiting patterns.   People on this board (and I'm sure in their interpersonal lives) seem to be doing what they can to scare others away from MU.  The Spirit and their handling/mismanagement of their DA program surely didn't help.   But all of that says nothing about the environment and coaching the current players are receiving, nor their quality as players.
