Preds survive off the fact they had been very good a few years ago but if everything is true what people have been saying above that explains their inability to maintain excellence.
Unfortunately in this club atmosphere, as time goes on, it becomes a game of haves and have nots as colleges learn to build a pipeline with clubs like PT, 2way, and eclipse and trust the players from those clubs. The rest don’t have that pipeline and so colleges (the top ones) don’t have that same level of trust. Though every now and then you have a few very good players come from the “other” clubs as their talent stands out. |
