[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College soccer is still pay to play.  Let's see if this player actually plays there or rides the pine.  They have to have some paying customers to offer the extra money to the scholarship players.  I'm sure the OP is a puff piece for his club.  Oh, let's use this as the example that our club is so great.

These types of families can pay whatever they like and easily create their version of their daughters "recruiting" journey.  The parents blast these pictures and announcements all over social media and linkedin.  This post exists because many people see the marketing effort that has gone on for years.  People in the soccer community know the joke, won't call them out to their face because it's not worth it and rip on them behind their backs.  That's the entertainment value of it.  Their "recruiting" journey was get good grades and your parents will push and pay serious money to get onto the bottom of the roster.  Not only are they not scholarship athletes, they are donating money to the school and the women's soccer program.  There are versions of these types of players all over the DMV (Duke, UVA, UCLA, Georgetown).  They won't play a competitive minute at a school like this...ever...Duke has a loaded roster again with a new coach.  For the girls that were recruited to play at a school like Duke, have the talent and ability to really play and compete in the ACC, it is an amazing accomplishment and it should not be diminished by POSERS.[/quote]

Dang! Did you get a lemon from a Koons dealership? I was commenting on this being shame early once I read the article, but this feels personal and given you are doing it here just shows your true character. Comment on the situation leave the individuals alone. [/quote]
