Is it tone deaf club owners?
28-Dukes-Freedom, which one makes it? Either one crack?
29-NXT already cracked and does anyone really think Futures has a chance?
30-Dukes-Dawgs-I guess Dukes got a lot of players at tryouts, haven’t heard anything about Dawgs

I think some of it is the better players are playing and training year round with their high school teams. In some ways, I think club ball is dying at the high school level.
