[quote=Anonymous][/quote] its actually the opposite the international kids in academies which are pro track. The kids coming to US generally are not getting to the top teams to become a pro. So the opt to come to US. These kids are generally better then there US counterparts because its not pay to play there. [/quote] Brilliant response and, maybe without even realizing, you got to one of the biggest ironies that I have found about US soccer: Soccer families in the US tend to dream on having their child be offered a soccer scholarship in college. However, if you take a close look, you will realize that most players in college that have a scholarship didn't even want to be there. Most of these kids are either European or latin Americans who trained all their lives dreaming of becoming pros and when that route didn't pan out, US college scholarships ended up being a decent backup plan.
