2011 Boys Soccer Verbal Commitments

[Unregistered]

While you're correct, the post you reply to was somewhat sarcastic. It did point out the conclusion that the earlier poster was trying to deduce, which is that DAP sucks, and that non DAP players fare just as well. Ignoring the evidence as he has does not make it true.

Which part is not true? You guys demand evidence. Evidence is provided. And then you say no evidence has been provided and ask for more evidence.

Tiresome, old bore.

The evidence is there. Look at the rosters. The fact that you choose to ignore certain facts in order to further your one man crusade removes your credibility.

One "over qualified, house-bound woman" crusade is more like it.... Who else would have the time or inclination to research that many schools, check their rosters, confirm which high school and club they played for, and how many games played and started - and then write it all up and put it on this website for discussion?

No way. This is definitely guy stuff. Guys invented sports statistics. They collect them, obsess over them, spend endless time listening to radio and TV shows about them, and visit this and many other web sites to feed their obsessions. Baseball was the most boring sport in the world until that guy started keeping all the stats on it. Reinvented the sport for these guys. There is just no way this wasn't the work of some guy who should have been doing something else!

There have been similar lists posted in the past in this thread and past years, both boys and girls. This is, after all, the 2011 boys thread. Why the criticism and sarcasm about this poster? Looks to me like he (or she) did a great job including schools and kids that usually never get mentioned, although would be nice with regular names instead of initials IMHO.

How close were the predictions for the class of 2011? Has anyone been following and have this info without having to go to each site?

What predictions are you referring to?

Maybe I am not understanding how this info is laid out. These are all freshman at one school? for instance, Umass Dartmouth, if I add up all those goals for players listed I get 64 total. Are you saying they had 64 total goals scored by Freshman this year. That seems like ALOT! Are these varsity goals? Am i missing something in how this data was pulled together?

Another example, Wheaton gets 43 goals from 3 freshman? Coach Cushing must be pretty darn happy! LOL.

Certainly not exhaustive, but presents a range of schools and backgrounds. Did not include rostered kids who have not played in more than 1-2 games (and who may be injured). Clubs not listed except where knew affiliated with DAP. Additions/revisions welcome.

Come on man, the key is at the top of the post. The numbers represent games played / games started.

Now wipe the drool off of your keyboard and get back to work.

It is clear that if you play in the DAP, your chances of playing and starting is far greater than if you don't.

That's because, on average, the DAP is comprised of better players. It's not a friggin' mystery...

I don't see that I see kids that did not evern play club playing. If you were in DAP and went to prep school you play but then again you are a 19 or 20 yo freshman

How many kids that played DAP are not even playing?

Clear based on what????

Just to give two of MANY non-DAP examples.....KO from Wellesley and Conn College has to be in the running for NESCAC ROY and started almost all games and scored a ton of goals...BB from Winchester and Wesleyan also was a NESCAC frosh stud starting almost all games as a defender. There certainly are enough examples to demonstrate beyond any shadow of doubt that DAP is not necessary to be a starter and impact player as a freshmen.

And before you come back and cite your players make sure you note which ones were 2010s. The extra year helps and of course non-DAP kids could take advantage of that option if they choose to do so and have the means.

Hey DAP guy, DAP players aren't even supposed to be playing in college. DAP is better than that, remember, and certainly better than D3 college soccer. Now shut up. And make sure you tell those DAP players to get up off the bench and cheer for their non-DAP teammates who are out on the field playing.
