[quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLean class of 2021 will look a lot like the class of 2020. Multiple power 5 conference commits, multiple Ivy League, strong programs like Georgetown[/quote]

Ok I look forward to seeing the list. I heard about a few at Georgetown but was told the rest were way down in numbers as well as caliber. Less than 10 committed right now with a few at lesser D1 schools[/quote]

If you consider a half dozen ACC schools including Duke, a handful of schools that qualified for the NCAA tournament and a competitive Ivy League program lesser then you are living in a different world than the rest of us. I don't know what McLean is doing and if it can last but I don't believe that there is a program in the area with its track record. FCV comes close and MUFC and Bethesda are good programs but when I watch a UVA vs Clemson or UNC vs Duke and see former McLean players in meaningful roles on all four teams, you have to give them some credit. There were players from Bethesda and FCV in the Duke/UNC game. [/quote]

A single DMV club could account for the entire starting lineup at UNC, Duke, UVA and Stanford, and people here will still tear it down.[/quote]

Agreed.  I don't get it.  It's silly and ugly all at the same time.  Now the inferences you want to draw about such lists can also be silly and ugly as well.  And if we're taking all of this seriously, don't tell me about where they get scholarships.  Tell me where they end up going to graduate school or getting hired.  This isn't about playing soccer for the rest of your life, or even where you go to undergrad.[/quote]
