The fallacy of the thinking of all of the Little Mias and Little Suzies as well as the parents of the Little Mias and Little Suzies is that only a minuscule fraction of them are anywhere near as good as Mal Pugh. An even smaller percentage will have her endorsement power. The GDA will flop. There are not enough good players in the US, or enough with high potential, to feed the GDA and sustain it. Real kids will continue to play soccer with the end prie being perhaps a scholarship to play D1 or D2 soccer. Those that don't want to play at that level because they don't want to make soccer their life or, perhaps, aren't skilled enough to play at that, will also continue to play. The vast majority will also want to continue on with HS soccer - regardless of how much or how little skill they have.
