[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/matt-hartman-on-the-new-homegrown-rules/id1611865497?i=1000577479814 Randomly came across this podcast from 2022. Start at the 6 min mark, he briefly touches on DCU. Youth sports analyst. Pretty much says what was said in previous posts. TLDR: DCUA sucks at scouting. Talent rich area and outside academies come and scoop up players.[/quote] Listen to podcast above starting at 6 min mark, for about 2-3 minutes. Also this: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIOuiuRJmKd/?igsh=MWZ4NTczcG1kN3lkYw== But apparently the DCUA defenders here know something these analyst's don't.[/quote] All true. And again they scrapped the u14 team for next year and are making parents pay for online school next year. DCU is an embarrassment. Seriously. It really is [/quote] The new director must be thinking what the hell did I get myself into with this job??!! These decisions aren't from him they are from upper management and are based solely on saving money and spending the absolute least amount of money they can and still carry some level of credibility within the MLS. When you have no budget and leadership that doesn't genuinely care about your academy, what can you do really?? Just keep the ship afloat. And that is all DCU wants to do. Sucks for all the kids because they are the ones that are losing. And DCU is the best path for a player in our area??? What a joke. Not if you genuinely want to become a better player. If you want paper notoriety, the facade of elite level, and an ego boost for the parents yeah DCU is good. But if you want real progress on your game that is measured and accountable, there is no way you can go to DCU. The academy hasn't put a player on the first team in three years.. THREE YEARS. And that won't change anytime soon because they haven't produced the talent. Just a really poor state of affairs at DCU. [/quote]
