At the end of the day, the majority of selection is always going to be political. You know before the tryouts even begin, who is going to make it. Honestly, I'm curious to see if names get added to the roster before the Fall...I'm sure some emails went out with complaints - happens under all the "best of the best" tryouts.
"the majority of selection is always going to be political"
Must be tough going through life with that attitude.
Not an attitude at all, just being honest.
So, "the majority" of the selections will always be political? Sorry, but that is an "attitude". It is not truth or fact. It might be your opinion but it stems from your attitude that these selections will always be political.
Maybe, just maybe the coach thinks the players that she selected will form the best team. After all, it is the coaches opinion that matters not yours.
The truth is that any of those girls at the tryout would blow out the weak “international” competition, which is actually made up of other American girls. The fact that coach took 7/9 of her own girls, some of which had terrible tryout tells us all we need to know. Of course those are the best girls in her opinion. Gotta feel sorry for the two she didn’t take. And some, not all, of those ‘24s were head scratchers and certainly political picks. It’s a political process. But so are many things in life and the lax world. Let’s just recognize it for what it is.
There were four 2024's added to the list.

The assumption is you're saying the NC coach's daughter and the Northwestern commit are "political" picks?
You do realize a daughter of a coach can be a great player and, quite possibly, have earned her spot why her play? Uh ok. I'd detest to live in your world because it must not be a fun one.
2/4 ‘24s deserved it, 2/9 Northwestern girls deserved it. Yes, I watched as did pretty much all of the other parents of the girls invited to the tryouts, including UNC head coach who clearly had a role in the process. Everyone who was there knows the truth. You’re telling me that 2 Maryland top 10 recruits and Duke #2 recruit were not better than some politically connected girls who had meh tryouts. Phenomenal draw girl from Virginia Tech. Also #1 girl from Suffolk committed to BC, and Plenty more examples. It is political, but that’s life. Convince me otherwise if you were there. Remember 7/9 NW. that’s all you need to know to know. All good.
