Really good to see that piece on TFCA holding a CIS & NCAA information night. As a parent myself I appreciate that they are trying to give the kids and their parents all of the information they need to make a good decision. That shows a good degree of care for the young players.

It's sad, when winter says something I understand there may be spin, but more of the time he's about 75-80% truthful.

When I see a quote from Cochrane I think... so is it the complete opposite? the truth? or some place in between.

What ever happened to that Canadian University kid (Smith I think) from the open tryouts year 1? That was all hype, I get it. The question is can Canadian University kids eventually play professionally? Has to be one or two CIS kids that could do it right now. But a program to groom them wouldn't hurt their chances.

My biggest regret, year one, was not showing up in my SuperMan Under'roos and having a go at making the squad.

Funny how they say it's designed specifically for MLS. Will it make the players better??? ;)

Agreed James. Also pleased that this was a message I took away from the town halls [placing academy players who aren't ready and/or skilled enough for the 1st team with NCAA contacts], so good on the FO for following through on their commitment. I think they're trying to give parents the feeling that they're not limiting their childrens' options by chosing the academy [and it sounds like it's working so far, at least with you].

I hope this Rawlins has the wad to spend on MLS and can make the bid happen. The fact that the future of MLS preseason is in Orlando says a little something..

Quick thought on former Red Tyler Hemming. London kid who didn't get much time here and went to finland only to get injured. Last couple seasons he went to the Charleston Battery (our former preseason place), to these same Austin Aztex that went belly up as a USL team so he came home to play at Forest City in London. It's his former USL Pro team the Aztex that moved to become Orlando. Now they are getting MLS attention.

Weird.
