[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The seven clubs that someone listed above would be much more than a sneeze. [/quote] It certainly would be if they all moved.[/quote] The moves GA has implemented are impressive. They're setting up long term trajectories that will bear fruit over time. ECNLs most recent response was forcing the BY to SY change. Imagine what would happen if NCAA gave non revenue college soccer to US Soccer. Then US Soccer changed it into a mix of 2nd tier pro and college teams league. Which seems a very likely outcome because NCAA doesnt have to worry about sports that dont make money and US Soccer gets control over the one area of high level soccer they dont currently have a say in. If this happens instantly recruiters no longer matter because the pro minor league + college teams league would become a situation were college roster spots are a prize for top players. Like how MLS Next acadamies and p2p mlsn clubs function. Basically youth leagues would just merge into college leagues with college scholorships and $$$ provided as a prize for top talent.[/quote] What you failed to account for, is the fact that we will be moving to Mars by then, according to Elon Musk. Oh, by the way, the last time USSF got involved in youth soccer, it resulted in disaster. [/quote] College soccer is so bad that even US Soccer can fix it. Mostly by replacing the super duper corrupt college people with only kind of corrupt US Soccer people.[/quote] this 100%. GA hats are all excited thinking little Cassandra is gonna blow up in the GA and show the big bad wolves of ECNL. so lets instead of going forward, GA wants to go backwards to US SOCCER after the DISASTROUS management of DA. people will never learn.[/quote] And forward to an ECNL monopoly? Monopolies sounds great.[/quote] if their goal is to play college soccer and especially at D1 level, yes[/quote] And therein lies the problem -- too much power for 1 league because it's not everywhere OR everywhere in adequate size. That actually hurts development of the whole ecosystem. ECNL should welcome competition instead of punching down like it does. It could be its undoing.[/quote]
