    No, just that prep school kids are well prepared for college. Lots of home school kids do very well in college.

                    Seacoast is smart! The kid was training in Portugal since June and kept his roster seat open. He comes back and wins games for us! Revs kicks you out for getting better.

                      ...and Seacoast makes their players worse the longer they stay (did you happen to see the 17 and 19 scores?). Enjoy your stay at the Inn.

                        Well, that's great, but the Revolution is just following US Soccer rules, like or not:

                        Can Academy players participate with non-Academy teams during the season?

                        Full-time Academy players are only permitted to participate on their Academy team, and National Team duty.

                        and

                        Can Academy clubs participate in non-Academy competitions?

                        To maintain a focus on training, Academy teams do not play in any other leagues, tournaments, State Cup competitions, ODP or All-Star events without written permission from the U.S. Soccer Development Academy staff. Full-time Academy players can only participate on their designated Academy team, with only one exception: National Team duty. Development Academy players for all teams must choose to participate in the Academy full-time and forgo playing for his high school team.

                          If he was never on the official roster submitted by the club it's allowed- there is a period where players can be added

                            He's been on the roster all year. Seacoast must have given him permission. Good for Seacoast.

                              Maybe they learned something from the Revs mistake. Having a player return better trained is a good thing for the player, the team and the club. More clubs should allow it if it is an appropriate opportunity. But I'm sure most, like the Revs, don't want to admit that their training is inferior to what's abroad, nor does USSF.

                                What's in the water in Newton? Why are all the soccer parents there so ridiculously nutty?
