Does it sting less that your kid was rejected by slinging mud at the academy?
If you say enough times they're bad then that makes the rejection not as bad lol

Sad and pitiful [/quote]

So do you have anything to counter the points in this thread?[/quote]

He doesn’t. For mr “verified facts” guy, you’re either sore bc ur kid didn’t make the cut. Or ur a current or past family who is out to destroy DCU.

How is mr verified facts guy wrong asking for verified facts? 
We so comfortable in fake news world now truth doesn't matter?[/quote]

There have been many facts presented.  He chooses to ignore them and always counters with questions, never counters with anything to prove otherwise.  Read through this thread, not once was there a post outlining the advantages DCU provides over outside academies.  [/quote]

Interesting stuff.
Did the people in the know list the advantages all the other academies provide over dcu for kids from the DC area?[/quote]

Yes [/quote]

I see something about more homegrown players makes some academies better.

I understand when kids in premiere league or la liga academies get called up to the senior team its a clear success marker or when they get sold for big money.

What does homegrown do? 
Do only homegrown players go to college or Pro?[/quote]

Dcu academy kids who are signed (go pro) are considered  homegrown. Homegrown players don’t count towards salary limits (I think but I may not have gotten the language right).

Everyone else goes to college or tries to get signed somewhere else.

I guess a concern is that DCU is not great at maximizing their homegrowns potential and appear to be ruining young players career with not the best decisions. Maybe asking for too much when the players want to go abroad? Like fletcher and akinmboni. Yet holding on to them and not doing anything to continue to develop them.

All homegrowns for the other 25 academies are maximized to professional potential fullness?

Are only homegrowns allowed to go pro?

I'm quite sure agencies, agents and managers have negative stories about every club to go with the positive ones.

Care to share some positive ones from DCU? [/quote]
