Thanks that helped. I heard Yeagley talk about the year long season with the mid year break where transfers could take place and liked the idea. I also kind of like the unlimited subs tbh and always find it odd that when my daughter played ECNL they only had the one sub. I know international play has the limited sub but at the instructional level, more so ECNL youth level, I think it has value to be able to pull a kid quickly for a teaching point then put them back in. Does top drawer or someone post a ranking of recruiting classes like we see for football or basketball?

Anyone know if he is the 9th ranked prospect in the country or 9th ranked in PA? Vincent Uglow | Defender | Newtown Square, Pa. | Penn Fusion Top Drawer Soccer's No. 9-ranked prospect from the Pennsylvania region,

Isnt today signing day? Do we have a thread discussing this? Do we have any concerns/hope?

Tank Ford. Now you might not have heard of him because he was created on Madden but let me tell you, he was a double stud. My point on not minding stud lineman is that we often get overly excited and talk ourselves into the greatness of just about any kid Cig lands. I was the same way with kids RMK brought in. Sometimes they turn into Calbert and sometimes they an important role player. But overall I really like the staff and am fine with them getting whoever they want. But if they can get Tank, I am telling you, he is awesome

It is not on my radar which is why I asked. Went to AI and got the scoop. The class is ranked around 6th and has a lot of key positions covered. It looks like Gigi could be an impact player right away, but we probably still some veteran portal players to be in the top third of the BigTen next year.

I don’t mind getting a prospect but am not opposed to some stud lineman

What. Michigan City is home of Scott Dolson and that Delray Brooks fella.

I was critical early because we did not seem to have toughness and grit, let alone enough talent to win much. Team has that toughness now. Wasn’t excited about how we executed down the stretch in regulation but they beat Purdue, smashed Rutgers on the road and beat a good UCLA team even though we had kids fouling out left and right. Not sure if it will last all season but we have the toughness now to overcome some of our shortcomings and that can be the fuel to make this a good season and show hope for what can be.

Regarding the excellent best ever class we have coming in, how many are in the class? What is it ranked vs others nationally and vs BigTen? Are these freshman expected to have an immediate impact such that we compete for a top quartile BigTen finish?

We kind of lucked into moving there in ‘98 when we moved back from the Chicago area. Kind of wanted a few other places before we started looking but we just kept finding Plainfield had what we wanted. The town really grew up well and is a great place, top 10 schools, great trails, close to the airport and Indy. Our sports teams haven’t done as well as our neighbor schools but the admins, coaches and parents help make things top notch. Pretty classic, kind of Plain Indiana town

We lived in Plainfield until recently and our kids went to PHS as well. Still follow oe keep track of the Quakers

Thought Noah was going to DePaul

I think the biggest potential loss is going from the chip on our shoulder, let me show you edge we ave had to being the team everyone is circling on their calendar. Urban mentioned something like this and after he won his first championship this change was huge. Cig is great and can probably still get them to play with an edge but it is easier when all of college football doubts you for most of 2 years.

I had thought Mendoza was sacked a ton too nut the chart suggests Hoover gets sacked more if I am reading correctly
