Different sides to the story on whether he/YU led the family on that she'd get the admit or whether the family was unrealistic about her chances. Generally with Ivies and D3 nothing is a done deal until you get that acceptance letter.
    if you know anything about ivys -coaches cant offer until you have been pre qualified by admissions and if an Ivy coach are truly serious he will make sure he has a admissions on board
    - that means the acceptance is simply a formality and it is crystal clear to the family
    my guess- the young lady had great grades and a stellar HS career but just didn't get thru Browns selection process (they usually don't take multiples from the same school etc..) if she got in she would have had a roster spot

      Very likely could have been test scores as well.

      Bare minimum for a heavily recruited Ivy athlete would be 1300. Some kids even with tutoring and multiple attempts simply can’t crack that barrier. Lots of good students struggle with standardized tests

Is it so hard to give this or many other kids credit???? Must be overblown at every club, but minus your own address I guess....SMH
          The quote was “over blown greatness”, which is completely accurate. There were better players but their parents/coaches didn’t come on here relentlessly and try to sell their kid and then cry foul when many debated their claims.

            UConn will not be making the NCAA tournament anytime soon. Their schedule is soo bad their only chance is to win the AAC tournament which won’t happen. They have fallen off the face of this earth all because of football which is the WORST In the country. They are trying with everything they have to get back in the Big East but who knows how that will pan out.

            UConn is a sinking ship.

                You made your point. Even you don’t know who the supposed best player in the state is. And you are an informed talking soccer guru

                  Why would you open a thread and comment and not know who this thread is even talking about?
