LE 2025 lost to bbl by a goal, and controlled the entire game. With the Jersey Express kids that they have added, I wouldn’t be surprised if LE 2025 becomes the top team in NJ next year. Tri state 2025 is weak. BBL 2025 will be solid.
Maybe they will, maybe they won’t. But after the 2023 & 2024s roll through I expect that college coaches won’t look at LE the same. Big drop in talent. There are probably some good kids but they’ll be looking elsewhere.
This is an incredibly baseless and short-sighted claim. Why would a college coach throwaway a decade+ long relationship because they don’t find a player for a year or two? If a club doesn’t have a player that fits a school’s particular need that year, it doesn’t mean they don’t look at the next crop of players. This happens everywhere, to every club. Are college coaches refusing to look at players from the Crabs because they aren’t the undisputed king of Maryland anymore? Goodness no.
College-club relationships are far more likely to be ruined by a director pushing players to schools that aren’t a good fit. Assuming the LE director is provides an honest evaluation and doesn’t claim every kid should be ACC bound, they’ll survive a downturn.
