[quote=Anonymous]I'm far from an FCV fan but I'm not going to fault them for failing to keep their commitment list up to date.  Yes, the Princeton commit has left, as has the Navy commit.  But they've gotten other commits since then too that they haven't added.  McLean still has a commit listed on their website that has moved on to BRYC (with a stop at Spirit VA in between).

The BRYC U17 team will not end up with 80% of those kids at D1 schools, and certainly not at top D1 schools.  Their best player just committed to W&M, and that is the best soccer school anyone on that team will get a soccer scholarship from. As an aside, BRYC's best 02s (and especially 01/02 Class of 2020 players) are not on the U17 team.

Mid-level programs don't just hand out full scholarships either.  They are still only 14 scholarships per team and they still need to have 25+ players so the math is straight-forward.  Now, will the same high quality player get more from a mid-major than a top program, absolutely.  But no matter what level, full athletic scholarships are very uncommon.  What does happen is that many of the lower level soccer programs are also less academically challenging, so  players will also often qualify for academic scholarships - think Radford, ODU, Longwood, etc.
