1) he relied too much on Mike Pickett (and his sidekick BS) and his private school recruiting scheme to poach top talent and stack strong teams at FESA; this got them so far but fizzled out. 2) The development and talent ID at younger ages under Scotty/Alberto is horrid as the reindeer games prevail. Yes. They can stack teams and win on the baby fields but so could really anybody with the talent pool at FESA. Once they move onto to real ECNL competition full sided on full fields, you see the lack of development and losing commences. If Bubb was smart, he would limit Scotty/Alberto influence to U10 and under and get some serious coaching up to U12 from there to get them ready.
The other thing you may notice or not IF Bubb is serious is whether Bubb is willing to demote 2-3 players from all ECNL girls teams to keep competition real and reward up and comers who deserve their opportunity. That is when you will know if he has the guts to deal with whining parents and is serious about winning or more focused on the same-old chase of money, politics, and reindeer games.
