[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]114 teams in GA and 700 commits is about 6 kids per team. That means that over 40% of the starting lineup from these clubs is not getting recruited on average. Not a great number and only 33% of an 18 player roster going to college to play. Think it safe to say that ECNL teams are sending more than 6 kids per team. 351 division 1 college programs for women. Lets be  conservative and say the average recruiting class is 5 freshman that is 1755 players so think it is safe to say that the ecnl is probably sending more kids to D1 schools than the GA is sending players in total to all 4 divisions of college soccer.

You're moving the goalposts in different ways at the same time. Try to keep them on the same field.

From everything you wrote i was able to decipher that GA is 6 on average per team that play on college and ECNL is something else but you cant define it because ECNL doesnt post commitment numbers.[/quote]

Nobody moved the goal posts. Don’t need an exact number from the ecnl to show how little an impact of 700 players is on a collegiate system that has ~20,000 at just the division 1 and division 3 levels alone. If you want to add D2 and NAIA that number goes to ~35000. Happy for those GA players but that is a drop in the bucket.

I would venture to say that the RL league sends comparable number of players to college as the GA. Last stat I saw was that 6 out of 10 players on D1 rosters were ECNL players but that was from 2022. Cannot imagine that number is much different today. [/quote]
