[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CISC boys parents meeting Wed night, so I guess club will announce MLS Next officially on Thursday [/quote]

Spoke to a parent and announcement is tomorrow morning with meeting after in the evening. [/quote]

Gotcha, no reason to wait on the announcement until after the meeting since word has gotten out.[/quote]

Agree. Maybe to let girls news settle. I've also heard multiple scenarios, so question is which is true? Heard they get Next 2, but also heard they get 3 teams (1 in Next and 2 in Next 2) which doesn't happen. They do need to just put it out there for the families but that would be too easy. [/quote]

Academy and ECNL teams trained together tonight and coaches told them 1 MLS Next and 1 MLSN2 team.  [/quote]

So all the ECNL team is now in the equivalent of ECNL Regional League...(the MLS2 teams are all RL-like teams in the mid atlantic)[/quote]

I’d argue MLS2 is lower than RL. All the teams added to the Carolinas division are NPL teams this year, which in this area are not at RL-level. [/quote]

I don't know about the other age groups, but definitely not the case with 08s, at least based on this year's teams.  The Fox 08 team is primarily former CISC ECNL guys (along with 3 from Academy) and they are ECNL level, only HFC and NCF RL would be relatively competitive with them.  Triangle United and Wake FC MLS2 were both NAL and the latter would probably also only have any trouble with those 2 + maybe CSA White, they'd smoke the rest.  Have played both James Island NPL and Charleston SC and each would finish top half in RL, probably not as good as HFC (who is going NL) or NCF though.  Don't know squat about Mutiny (is it their 2nd team?), Carolina Core or Tormenta but if they're solid at least 08 is a cut above RL IMO and at worst on par. If the existing CISC players stick around, they'll be good at that level too.
 
My son played RL 2 years before NL so we're pretty familiar with all the Carolinas Division RL teams.[/quote]
