    An International for Missouri State? Mind blowing? I wonder what professional Academy he came from in England? No spots at this State school for American players! The local taxpayer that supports this institution should contact their local legislators and inquire into this program

    That school - the poster child - for where soccer is at in USA - below the flyover zone - in the basement - door locked.  NCAA pays almost no attention - money is all controled by ladies - go to any college / university - with mens soccer - and all the mens facilities are actually paid for by the - women - b.c. of the forgotten investment portion of Title 9 - which - ironically - indirectly here - helps men.  Anyway - yeah - no one cares what you write Wade - no one.  There are 25 roster spots on that team - they contribute to the schools - 'diversity' - they help bring up men's athletics GPA - and they quietly go about their business. No one really cares except friends and family.   This is soccer USA - for the most part. Long way to go.  Hockey - still taken more seriously on the mens sice of colleges than soccer.  Have a nice day.
