[Unregistered]

so if a kid wants to stay in state who do you recomend- UCONN used to make the tourney
so i would put them at the top but give us your in state list
lets keep it D1 soccer wise

She is an honor student, So i would have went with conn college or Trinity. She would have a better chance at winning a league or making an ncaa final four. She would have had a better chance at getting league honors and she would have gotten a better education. All that, and she probably gets a free education or close to it if she comes from a modest family income bracket.

the comparison was Great players who never played ECNL or DA- the comparison was not player comparison-between JM and those players
nobody gets noticed first in HS-coaches dont have the time to scout during their seasons- so she was noticed in NPL

Ok because when Lilly was playing, they had ecnl and gdap.

You know she was noticed at npl game right?

Major Richard!

Plenty of kids play d1 that would have been better playing d3. She didn’t have the test scores for Yale.

With all the great schools hardly any distance away I've never understood the need to stay in state. It's a small state with only so many options, but cross into NY or MA and boom.

But maybe she dosent wanna go to a school with stuck up Privileged little white girls from Westport/Weston/Wilton/NewCanaan/Darien all those towns that are very much like them.

Did you even bother to think that UConn is a much more diverse School with girls and boys from backgrounds just like hers....../A college experience should be ones best 4 years of life.


CT college, Trinity, Wesleyan, Wellesley , Colby , Bates , Smith , Williams , Holy Cross all of the above have the same make up of privileged Fairfield kids overrated and overpriced. Parents and kids believe these schools are secret Ivy’s ( keep believing that) Academics no different than Fairfield, Providence and UConn.

You seem to be stuck on the fact that she in a Latina. You mention it in multiple posts. I am assuming it it the same douche because you use the same vernacular.

UConn is 61% white. Trinity is 65 percent white. I’m sure if you walk the campus, you won’t notice that differential. Wesleyan is only 53% white. Imagine that.

I find nescac campuses very privledged, but very accepting and respectful of different cultures. Perhaps it also has to do with size. State schools seem to have more then their share of the deplorables as Clinton called them. The probability of seeing a MAGA hat is much higher at UConn than a nescac school. Storrs is in the middle of nowhere, Trinity is in Hartford, a diverse city. More similar to bridgeport than storrs.

Ps holy cross is not a nescac school

Azzz wipe-your comparison is no different than me saying I have a Black friend so I can’t possibly be a racist.

Just because Trinity is in a crappy part of Hartford dosent mean it’s diverse, but yeah if you walk off Campus you could say you’re.

Fact- 6% black
Fact - 6% Hispanic

By far lower than the majority of colleges in the US where the average black student
population is 12-17%.

You must have started the holiday drinking.

Black friend? I gave you facts on percentage of whites at various schools you mentioned.

Fact....UConn is 5 percent black. Trinity is 6 percent, Wesleyan is 7 percent, Williams is 8 percent. You want to talk Hispanic? UConn is 9 percent......conn college.....9 percent.

Your wife must love having a husband that is right even when he is wrong, or did she leave you already?

while student makeup is certainly important its usually not the first reason for many students- they want big football or in UCONN case it would have to be big hoops
its location- Friends etc... maybe for her its loyalty- lenny offered her early
whatever the reasons, they are hers and you have no right to 2nd guess them as you weren't there through the process and certainly have no insight into her particular situation.

maybe she could have gone to Staples or greenwich to get ready to play DIII at williams
about the same

I believe this topic is completely exhausted by now. At the end of the day, you have a girl that’s done well for herself and is now getting a great education opportunity that includes playing a sport she likes. And the biggest problem lies with the very same parents that would wish their child had the same opportunity at any school. Congrats to her and I’ve never met her or even knew who she was before this stupid thread.

Don’t knock it. impact player at Williams and won a d3 championship this year or played for UConn and was 4-14? Williams education vs UConn? Sorry, no comparison in either case.

Fact ..... the Hispanic/Black population @ Uconn is 15% ... meaning with a student makeup of 30,000+ there’s over 4,500 people of color.
UConn’s black and Hispanic makeup is larger than both Trinity & Williams TOTAL population as a complete school.

The chance that a classroom course having no student of color or just one is frequent at these so called ( small Ivy’s) but eliminated @ Uconn.

You’re probably assuming that a school is considered diverse if the web page shows a few kids of color or if you see a few walking around campus.
You have no idea why certain kids pick certain schools but I can tell you that there’s many privileged kids that wouldnt dare look at schools with high color student population even if the Academics matched their liking.
