Originally posted by Unregistered View PostAgain, your opinion!! The opinion that will matter in the end is that of the player and their family. Did they get what they needed out of the program, whether that be growing in there soccer development, team bonding, college opportunities etc.. I hope that all players, no matter their club choice has a great year this next season..

Not Really
Originally posted by Unregistered View PostNope the top norcal clubs are Deanza Force, San Juan, and PSV Union
As an aside, the top utah program is la Roca.
Deanza Force is moving its top tier to San Jose Quakes. Andres Deza and his new FC Barcelona former academy director moving the top of the roster to San Jose. The new program will essentially replace the Deanza Force ECNL program. PSV union is one o the most respected clubs in the country.
San Juan had a great ECNL teams, but they are moving the best players to the Davis Legacy half of the merger. This way both clubs keep first and second tier kids. A trend in the making.
But yeah you may be able to quibble a bit about the consistency of the teams/clubs for a year or two, but not much longer than that it will be clear which is the "A" league in the country
Davis Legacy was accepted into ECNL, so not sure where you get the idea that San Juan is moving their bet players to Davis. They will be competitors in the same league.
The ECNL teams in NorCal will be: MVLA, Mustang, Pleasanton Rage, San Juan, Davis, and Santa Rosa.
The DA team in Norcal will be: Earthquakes, PSV, Placer, Thorns, Burlingame, and Lamorinda
DeAnza is not part of the DA and lost the ECNL affiliation.
ECNL will be by far the stronger league in NorCal.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOnly makes a difference in the silly Oregon argument over which is better Ecnl or Thorns Academy. They'll never play each other but the OR Ecnl teams will be competing vs much tougher NoCal Ecnl competition - at least for 2017-18. College recruiters will realize this.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostEcnl competition doesn't matter when they can't compete. College recruiters don't tend to watch teams lose badly every game. Can't recruit much from it.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWrong. A Rage Ecnl team that didn't win a game all season put even bench players into college. Many D1 schools too. Sure top Ecnl team rosters tend to send more girls to top programs but individual girls on losing Ecnl teams get recruited for college all the time.

Rage is from California.
Typical Ecnl idiot. Because some team from California put kids into college that means bench players from Oregon clubs go D1?
Idiot propaganda that really makes people not trust them.

There are downsides to Ecnl & GDA but hurting college recruitment is definitely not one of them. The only exception to that is if a girl is on the roster but doesn't travel or doesn't play meaningful minutes. Coaches won't recruit players they don't see play even if they're on the winning team.
