The problem I see with all the back and forth comments is the data "you people" are using is from a 3rd party. I am sure the creators of the 3rd party data are always placing their club in the best light, thus it could be leaning toward being biased. To report the facts someone should contact each member of all the teams for these clubs and ask the questions listed.
Did you want to play college soccer? How many coaches contacted you about playing soccer for them? How did these coaches find you? (tournaments, ODP, Club games, soccer camps, other teammates, High School) How did you decide on your college choice? (college reputation, degree program, soccer coach, soccer playing time) Are you interested in playing soccer on the pro level?
This type of data would answer questions above and beyond what you should need to decide how to spend your time and money.
