The ECNL pipeline is full of rust. Next year FC Portland will be watered down by their own 04s who aren't even playing top Premiere. CU will be watered down with everyone else that doesn't make GDA. GDA will capture top talent from Timbers Alliance and everyone else. You read it here first.

I think the whole Timbers thing can be hard thing to navigate for a board and DOC.
I detest seeing the Timbers patch on youth club uniforms, but mostly because I tire of seeing MLS teams grabbing $$ in pay-to-play youth soccer.
