I agree that it's too much a business for everyone involved - from ussf to the owner of the day's inn. however, going away from DA will not change that.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWhy do you think ODP was a successful program? Just curious. It seems like DA is doing exactly the same thing as ODP but just with DA kids. Yes, some non-DA kids get excluded. But I wouldn't consider that number significant in terms of lost talent. Non-DA parents will state otherwise, but having been on both sides, I disagree.

No one is saying that ALL the best kids are in DA. That is absurd. But if you would only look one place for talent - if you only had the resources to scout one league or group - no question in my mind you look at DA games.

Un-affiliate coaches from small kids running the tryouts and noting their speeds, technical, tactacal, size, positioning, etc. Rotate them throughout scrimmages and WATH!

Originally posted by unregistered View Postlet's take south fl as an example. You have 4 das: Inter, weston, kendall, boca. Let's take the last two, boca and kendall. You think players 5-20 on the roster in boca and kendall are so poor that average to above average non-da playing kids that can be substituted for them? I have to strongly disagree. Weston gives us a good yard stick for comparison. Their non-da teams are perennial state cup finalists or semi-finalists. So you have some basis for comparison. Players 14-20 (speaking in crazy generalizations) on a weston da squad often times played the prior year as the best players on the non-da squad that advanced to finals or semi-finals in state cup play. These players (that shine as the best in non-da play) often struggle mightily for playing time on the da team. What does that tell you?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostYou may be right, or not. But that's not the topic. The discussion is whether an ODP like program is better than current ussf scouting which is DA based. Yes, in theory, it would be ideal to scout everyone. Maybe they should attend non-DA matches and sit there with a chair and a little pad at an 8 am west pines tournament match. But understanding that resources are not infinite, I think attending DA matches and particularly MLS Da matches is probably greatest bang for buck.
