I actually agree with you. Rankings are ridiculous. TUSA, who you said is one of the best teams you've ever seen is 3rd in NC. North Meck is ranked ahead of them even though TUSA won the NC league and State Cup, and North Meck (like Lake Norman) didn't make the semifinals. CASL's first team and CSA's first team aren't anywhere to be found in the rankings. (because they don't get any USYSA 'points' by playing in the ECNL against other clubs' top teams)
Again, I'm not arguing. I'm agreeing with you. These rankings are ridiculous. I believe I even said so in another thread where someone mentioned the "11th ranked team in the nation" and they turned out to have lost something like 6 of their last 10 games. By the way, checking today, this "11th ranked team in the nation" has somehow moved up to #10 after going 0-3 at Disney. So, I'm not 'dodgeing' it, I'm agreeing with you.
Do you agree with me that CASL and CSA put their top teams in ECNL and their second teams in other leagues, including R3PLE and NC Premier?
