For all the chest thumping the state doesn't produce much top talent so all the bragging like yours is pretty sad

Georgetown kid committed before he laced up for the Revs. That’s the pattern. The same thing happens every year.

Maybe now allowing prep school players will slow that practice. But last club will be how his player resume is posted on the Georgetown website. It's just how it works.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostYes they do that, averaging probably one a year. Certainly if they weren't in BDA/MLS their future college coach will push for them to move to prepare them better. Who was he with before?

I do think parents in MA should know that the Revs misrepresent commits every single year.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThey get called out on it every year so most in the small MA soccer world are aware. But who cares really? Literally every club does it and it won't change. Usually it's only one player out of 5-7 commits in total. The rest of the list is far more telling than the one outlier.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostYes some years their list has been, um, anemic. I think one year they had three This? This year's is one of their better ones in terms of numbers. Don't forget about half the roster is juniors.

What a raw deal those kids got when their parents dragged them off to Portugal. Way to ruin their futures in one easy step. It's a sad commentary on delusional soccer parenting.
