And Marvin Johnson, who coached with CC at FCV for 7 seasons, played for Luton for 15, and ran Luton’s youth academy for 5.  And Jack Stefanowski, who is an extremely experienced goalkeeper coach who spent time at FCV, DC United Academy, Washington Spirit, and Loudoun United.  VRSC unquestionably has the core coaching staff and training facilities necessary for a nationally competitive GA program.  The only question is whether a large block of current FCV GA players will move there immediately so VRSC can field competitive teams beginning next season, or if CC and MJ will need to build the program from the ground up as they did at FCV, which will take several years.[/quote]

I agree with you, in theory. But there’s one big unknown and that’s how much autonomy will they have to run things as they believe they should be run?  The club’s TD has an enormous ego and it’s hard to see him suddenly saying “Ok, all these FCV guys are here now so I’ll stay out of it and let them run things”.  That would absolutely be for the best but does it seem reasonable to expect that a guy like that would keep his distance from what is unquestionably the biggest thing to happen to the club that he started (especially when it’s clear that it wasn’t a result of anything he did other than hiring the right people)?  For the sake of anybody who’s willing to take the chance, I hope so.  Time will tell.[/quote]
