Happens in lax all the time. A lot can happen in 4 years. I've seen little fat 8th graders that are studs by their senior years. I've seen superstar 8th graders that are the same size and talent 4 years later. It's great to have a college interested in you in 8th or 9th grade year but comes down to good parenting and keeping things in perspective for the kid. College has nothing to lose with early verbal offers and will continue to do so until NCAA steps in but signing day senior year is when the rubber meets the road.

I agree with this post. the early verbal is only that a verbal promise. I can see if Maryland is your dream school and you are are Jr in high school and you have not verbaled to Maryland you think "I can never go to Maryland" But the truth is those 14 kids on the verbal list for the 2017 class will not be the 14 kids signing with Maryland on NLI signing day. And if you have 5 other schools blowing up your phone your SR year I am sure Maryland will answer the phone if you call and tell them they are your dream school.

Maryland is a great example. They take a ton of early recruits but will also pick up late bloomers. This past summer they picked up a couple of rising seniors (2017s). They also took college transfers in the fall and even took a freshman in the spring semester that played for Drexel in the fall. You better come ready to play at Maryland, though. A number of players didn't make it from the fall season to the spring roster.

Lost to Leading Edge and to Crush in semi's. Great games, Leading Edge looked really good, and the Crush game in semi's was 6-8. Great day of lax, probably get to see some rematches next week at big4 in philly.

Than your B team, I suppose, but nobody in the upper brackets would cheapen themselves with that argument. Stay in your bracket, please.

The list was personally edited by RM which means top 120 to only him and the attendees. NLF promotional event set up by RM using UA facilities.

I'm sure there were some great players there but I'm quite certain that it was not the top kids in the country. It was another event orchestrated for the benefit of a few adults and a few dozen kids.

Very well run event. Top talent of boys. Plenty of college coaches. No cost to the participants and and they adjusted games based on the heat. Exactly as advertised.

Very few, it is clear the coaches are not worried about 2020 at this point. Kind of weird after how much attention they got last summer at this very same tournament.

Not sure what field you were at but at Cedar lane there were numerous D1 coaches watching 2019 & 2020s play

Looney's lost to FCA 10-8

Looney's didn't have their FOGO or Goalie and that was the difference in the game.

What happened to Crabs 2020. They are pretty bad now. Definitely not the top tier team they use to be.

What happend to Crabs is that a bunch of their holdbacks now play for FCA. In addition - the advantage they had over teams because of holdbacks is also dwindling because their opponents have actually hit puberty.

Crabs is a dying a slow death. Recruiting rule change and the eventual move to age based classification per USL recommendations will put an end to their scheme. Long over due.

Three reasons:

1. Defections to other teams
2. Others playing the holdback game that Crabs created (namely, FCA)
3. Puberty closing the gap for non-holdback players

Every team plays without key players from time to time in the summer. If Crush had given an excuse like missing players last week, Looneys would be the first to jump all over them. Looneys lost - that is all. Congratulations to FCA, the new #1.
