Daddy, you say "...R3PL seems to be going the way of the dinaosaur also, given the rise of the USSF Academy. The best players are there, or heading there" ...and all is quiet on the northwestern front. But, if I would've said it, parker/mak and loc dog would've gone ballistic.

What is up with that ?!?!



I think its just that my natural tact and diplomacy is so apparent to all!

What if.......CESA went Academy? What would be left in NC-SC-GA? R3PL would be better than the SCSCL......but no way could anyone say it was the highest level of play in the region. Well guess what? Outside of CESA.......we're already there. Not a slap at anyone. It is simply reality. CESA is a great club with great teams. Academy or no....they are what they are. But just as "no man is an island, unto himself...", there is a point that I believe CESA is fast approaching, where if they want to stay at that level......they will need to go Academy.

They've been able to pull kids from all over by selling themselves as highest level of play. That will cease....as people see that they no longer are competing at that level.
