Second, on the boys side there are people looking for pathway to the pros. Not so in any real sense on the girls side. If this were true you might see some move but ECNL will then become the college vehicle and will still get most of the girls.

I think you are underestimating the delusion of parents and kids. If GA is successful in establishing (or being perceived as having established) a "pathway to the pros" the better girls will migrate there from ECNL and it will become a viable (and in time, primary) pathway to college soccer for girls.
Maybe but I doubt it. The girls side is focused on college. Some girls are leaving for the pros but the best girls are still going to college.
DA kicked ECNLs butt. But ECNL is still here better than before. The US pro teams- male or female - cannot be relied on long term. Maybe you can make an argument for the MLS which seems to be having a great run with no end in sight. But not on the women's side.
Maybe over time/
The women need to have league minimium salaries that players can afford to live on before they think about subsidizing youth programs
Stop propagating lies.
2024 NWSL average pay is closer to 65k
Average gets distorted by highly paid stars. Most players make close to league minimum which is $37,800.
#28 & above on the roster make 37k
#16-26 on the roster make 56k
#6-11 on the roster make 100k
#1-3 on the roster make 400k
Be honest + stop cherry picking data points.
Or, put another way, 25 players per team earn 100k or less.
I'll take 100k to ride the bench.

so the highest paid player averages 500k and the two behind her below 300k. How does that equate to three players per roster earning 400k.

Tell me College "development" isn't good enough without telling me.
It’s just evidence that they will get players from wherever they can and NWSL’s priority is not the USWNT.
Or that players developed in College aren't good enough.
AND that nationality of the player is not a priority with a professional league.
