Again, I don’t see anyone here claiming GA is the better league. At the same time, while there has been a very very small change this year, nobody should be acting like GA is suddenly going to take over the top spot from ECNL either. My goodness, it was just few years ago that the DA folded and is also the only reason why ECNL is what it is now. Things change, often.


Accurate. More reason why kids should chase coaching/club/fit vs badge, especially for non recruiting year age players. Landscape changes year to year. The switch from BY to SY change won’t be the only change next year.


Agreed. Badge does not = Good coaching. There is a reason certain teams have more outsiders coming in vs. insiders holding position.

I dont think you've accepted that times are changing and there's both high and low teams/clubs in both leagues.



GA hats now romanticizing GA's alleged accession to sucker more parents. cracks me up evey time

Great point, but when top clubs like SLSG are forced to move to GA because their boys moved to MLSN, the scales will start tipping to ga and that’s the platform coaches will recruit from. Watching this closely…

Do you just cut and past the same thing over and over again. No one denies your stats but moving forward, its being shown now that it will shift the other way. And guess what, when it moves to the next hot league, something new will pop up. But guess what? Those same colleges will be there and they will shift target to next hot thing as well. Where did the recruit before ECNL was even a thought and before that and before that? Colleges will always adjust recruiting based on the league changes.
