bear, regarding your question: "With Rob Strickland moving to train/coach the U18 Academy group, anyone care to speculate what will happen to the CUFC 91 Elite, arguably one of the best teams in SC history?"

i don't know much about this team personally, but i would imagine that at the beginning of each previous season, players who wanted to be on that team tried out for a position. i would also imagine that most of the players from the previous year's team made it, while maybe they added one or two new players.

why would the upcoming season be any different from previous seasons? i mean, obviously they would be playing in a different league, but why would the makeup of the team change so much because of that? do you think players are going to refuse to play in a different league?
