This upcoming transfer portal is going to be CARNAGE. 🌪️

🎓 Fifth-year players chasing one last season.
📈 Standout players looking to move up.
🔄 Players short on minutes looking for a fresh start.
All competing for a limited number of roster spots. ⏳
Some will find a better fit.
Some won’t find a team at all.

🚪 The portal guarantees you an exit.
It doesn’t guarantee you a destination.

Understand the market before you give up your place in it.

As a former captain of a top ten D1 team, many moons ago this a fucking joke. College soccer sucks, our coach was the keeper for Hungary when they were the best team in the world and I got worse in four years. 20 matches in 3 months is just plain stupid, anti development. The NASL collapsed so it didn’t matter but the standard was better in men’s leagues in Jersey in my 30s than college soccer. It’s a cancer.

The top programs will now secede from the NCAA.

NCAA will become extinct for men’s college soccer. This is what they’ve bargained for. This is what they’ll get.

@Don_K_Williams I’m a former D1 soccer player and my son is currently playing so we’re on the side of the “good guys”. The lack of recovery time for the body is insane

At 236 rescind votes, and 241 nearing....it's important to note that 41 of the last 50 rescind votes don't sponsor Men's Soccer. Dark day for @NCAASoccer. Admin friends calling friends is ending an attempt to provide a better soccer experience for 5600 D1 Mens soccer athletes.

[Chris Cousins | 🇺🇸 College Soccer Recruiting @Chris_M_Cousins]

99% of college soccer players won’t go pro. So the new model can’t really be based around that.

However, the new model allows more breathing space to be a student and experience more things like internships and work experience. The current model honestly doesn’t allow that.

MLS club San Diego FC have reached out to the parents of the 3 year old Black boy, who plays soccer so well that the police were called on him, Because other children could not get the ball, even though he was the youngest among them. According to the source, San Diego FC contacted the parents to offer the little boy a scholarship and enroll him in their academy.

[Henry Bushnell @HenryBushnell]

Men's college soccer celebrated its move to a fall-spring season. But behind the scenes, there's a strong push to block it.

~150 schools have submitted rescission votes. The NCAA D-1 board will discuss today.
