Message: [QUOTE="bill6319, post: 3077484, member: 9072"] The reason this is a story is because of the current state of college soccer in the US, each year there are less and less 4 year players who get professional contracts. In baseball, basketball, football and sometimes hockey the most common path to going professional is through college. Soccer is completely different, clubs want players in the pro system at a young age to develop. College soccer is not the path to be a pro anymore in the US. For young players taking 40k or 50k a year instead of a partial scholarship to play college soccer in 2018 gives you a much higher chance at having a pro career [/QUOTE]
