[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just watch their games those girls are not playing for these teams, they might be on the team and have a uniform, but getting zero PT. Only exception to this is the UVA girl who was on u17 NT she will play at UVA, but why didn't she go Pro like 3/4 of that team already has? Maybe a tier below so Union keep trying, good schools, not elite soccer players. The other two VA girls are also choosing college route as well, is this more evidence for a watered down NoVa soccer landscape?[/quote]

I find it hard to believe the girls are signing up to this deal knowing they won't play.  that can't be what they want.[/quote]

If playing soccer put me on UCLA's radar, I'd be ok with being in school there and just leaving the team if it didnt work out. Still a UCLA degree, she likley never got any scholarship money either way. Sounds like a good risk to take to me, nothing to lose other than coming to conclusion that your soccer career is likley over. Not ok with my family cause we will never be full pay, and UCLA out of state is absoultely full pay. Goes back to the argument that these girls would have likely gotten into some of these schools without soccer because of their zip code. In the UCLA example its 100% soccer but that doesnt mean that she will play, she likely helped raise the academic score for the class (which is a real thing). Womens soccer is a privilege game, sad but true reality[/quote]

If the kid is happy not playing and the parents can brag...it's a good deal since they can pay for the roster spot.  Seems to be more of that going on at the bottom of these top schools.[/quote]
