I've not heard what the training difference is in the Academy. Is there some magic formula they are following that is a lot different than your standard top tier boys teams? Was this training kept from the players when they were playing on the regular R3 teams? I know the ECNL on the girls side, the training is the same- just more expensive. Going to 10 months does not help unless the training is so much better than high school. There will be a lot of regrets through a players life, I think this HS decision may mean more regrets
