That other thread about the Revs Academy was getting long in the tooth. A more useful read is learning about how other MLS clubs are building better pipelines. Then again, this is a "follow the money" sort of situation. Or rather, the lack of money (and commitment). Our local franchise is poorly managed. The Krafts won't ever have the interest of the vast majority of other MLS owners (can you imagine Tata instead of Heaps?).
Maybe at the White House Trump will introduce one of his Russian oligarch buddies to Kraft and who will make a mad money offer to take the Revs off his hands, build a stadium, spend all the TAM and plain old money for real designated player. Hey, it worked for Chelsea fans!

For Marsch, successfully bringing young players into the first team starts with having a distinct style of play that is instituted at every level, from the academy all the way through the first team. That helps establish an understanding of what's expected on the field. Then there are the different stages -- "platforms," Marsch calls them -- at which players prove themselves, be it the academy, Premier Development League, USL, or the first team.
