Omre isnt that good was never going to be close to even derricks level. Academy had a problem with nepotism where players who werent good like omre got spots because family members were on first team.We need to see more players like Adams and Clark go through the system in order to pull in the top youth players. Etienne Jr, Muyl, and guys have chips on their shoulders for being let go also have some influence locally.
The damage done to the academy by Hamlett has been largely repaired by McCafferty, but there are still many parents and players that were close to the fired coaches whom didn't see eye-to-eye with Hamlett (specifically Jeff Zaun) that feel the academy isn't the best path any longer and are going to Cedar Stars, PDA, etc... Fortunately there haven't been many guys the first team missed out on over the years (excluding Mason Toye, Henry Kessler).
Omre Etienne, Derrick's cousin, just jumped over to Columbus Crew's academy and has the talent to be a regular in MLS.
