First major props to Atlanta United player for the call up. Unreal accomplishment and Its an amazing honor and recognition. This is his 2nd camp I believe and he is a heck of player.
What stands out is this statement, they recently had another group of 02s called in and will have to look at the player pool, but for this pool
"All 20 players on the roster are currently registered with a U.S. Soccer Development Academy club."
So for good or bad - all 20 are from DA teams or registered with one. Find it hard to believe not a single non DA player was scouted and/or good enough to make this team. Maybe I'm wrong and way wrong, seems we have a scouting problem etc. But again, maybe i'm wrong.
Wrong or Right -- if you want to play on YNT, and you think you are good enough, you better get your butt to a DA side.
Also, haven't counted, but someone else mentioned only 4 not from DA clubs.
Now some of this could be a kid, is just registered with a DA side, but really plays with a non DA side etc..
