[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Marshall - current D1 champs - has 22 international players on their roster for the upcoming season. A number, maybe approaching the majority, of top programs have 10+ international players on their rosters. If you are going the MLSNext route because the training/program seems really strong, sure, go for it...but if you’re going there as a pathway to D1, you may end up disappointed.[/quote]
Some coaches are notorious for only or mostly recruiting international players (and older ones at that—a lot of those Marshall players are 24 or 25); others take the time to scout/recruit mostly US players. It’s easy to tell what sort of coach you are dealing with on that front by checking the rosters. This is something every family should do anyway so you can get a sense of what regions the coaches focus on and the size and playing resumes of current players.  I’d be wary of the coaching skills of a coach that only has tall players on his roster, for example, though this might be a great fit for a big kid who likes to play in a very physical system.
