Of course your kid is going, no one said not to. The point is that if you get multiple offers, weigh your options carefully. If DCU is your only offer, take it. You should read through the thread before replying.

Stop being ridiculous and unrealistic!

How many kids in the dmv are going to get multiple offers to join MLS academies elsewhere?
All those other academies have good players in their own regions.

Right, they have good players in their own regions so they don't pick up studs from other states. Can you tell me what they use those residency/homestay programs for? The dorms they have at their facilities are used for what?

All the clubs with homestays are filled with (many) dmv players?
No other region or area has good players for them to choose from?

No one said that. What was said is that many players from the DMV have left for other MLS academies around the country. And this is in fact true. Seriously you're a troll...

Some local players have left on lateral moves to other MLS academies.
Some completely on their own initiative and some as a saving move after failing to impress here. Quit or get fired scenario.

As for this top ballers term thrown around loosely. If you aren't playing with men at 16, 17 already and have an agent, you ain't no "top baller".

Why aren't the people repeatedly posting toxicity about dcua not trolls?

It's an exaggeration. Hyperbole.

Many kids with families living in the dmv aren't all over the country at MLS academies.

I personally know 5 families from the DMV that have kids in other academies. One just signed a homegrown at Nashville. That was posted earlier in the thread. There are others...Philly, red bulls, st Louis, Nashville, Columbus, FC Cincinnati.

5 is many?
Or even 8?

Yes

Exactly. Great points.

This is just not true...you're just not close enough to top ballers in our area. Like real top ballers that have options.

There is also another one at fc Cincinnati. Signed a homegrown at 15.

And I know another that went LA Galaxy this year.

And another that just finished up at Colorado rapids.

Say your ignorant without saying your ignorant. Just curious though, what number is considered "few" to you?

DCU is not a good academy. Thread over.

You think its advice to tell all of us here whos kid won't even be invited to DC Academy that we should be considering other academies?
The majority of us can't even get into SYC or Achilles.
Get Real!
Silly

Sorry not the PP but this one. We know THIS is the troll masquerading as another poster. Any post that is kind of a fake humble brag about kid being selected at DCU...

Good thing you're not a detective for a living.
I love seeing me getting blamed for being someone else and vice versa by the sleuths
