Interesting. They have also posted tryouts and some coaching slates for next season with GA/Aspire logo. Seems strange if they were planning a switch. Was this chosen by them or for them?

Kansas Rush moving from GA to RL. Boys in ECNL and no one in KC getting into MLSN unless they have Sporting in the name. Coincidentally Sporting City has been demoted to Aspire. Leaves Union and Legends as only GA clubs…. Can see Legends becoming a regional power if this allows them to retain players.

That clearly wasn’t even a defection; it was a demotion.

No one saying “WOHOOO we are going to ECRL”

You (or someone else) posted this previously.

-Those numbers are not close to accurate for ECNL or GA.

The registered numbers on the showcase website have never been accurate. Only the showcase organizers know who actually showed up. Real numbers that you cant get by looking at a website...for either league.

More to come, based upon the promotions in NJ, MI, OR I’m highly predicting NJ team (SJEB or STA - strongly feel it’s STA) and a Midwest/mid America team (Indy Premier or Columbus United - Indy Premier would be a big loss). Outlier could be someone from PacNW Spokane Shadow? I wouldn’t say dominant is the word for any of these teams but Indy Premier as initially reported, but all had a team at Champions Cup.

It seems clear they want to target teams for ECNL only and I think step 2 will be press on current members with MLS Next.


Keep smoking the strong stuff man. ECNL has peaked and everyone knows it.

"This guy" or you?

What's so wrong with the current rankings app?


Whoever it is, they have a lot of work to do. They have Slammers FC, Michigan Hawks and SLSG listed as "established programs" and in the 60-70 percentile. They are not listed as "elite programs"

Also super fun pointing out UNC was there. They are throwing the shade.

Yeah right but they know the followers are too dumb to check. Keep cutting them checks so they dont go bankrupt


They said p4 coaches, not D1. Keep up. (BTW, ECNL gets equally picky with the stats it likes to stress).

Oh and IYSG all haughty on his feed today ... Asking about how GA had way more coaches at this event a few years ago. ... That totally reveals his ECNL bias just to try to make some dig. ... What's way more important is answering the question WHY are there fewer coaches attending these events at both GA and ECNL than a few years ago, not that there are fewer.
