Bogert is making it sound more like it will be easier to go Europe on a free than having a homegrown contract. RBNY2 is still graduating pros like Tolkin & Edelman. But RBNY2 is geared towards creating players for the first team or to sell on to Europe. If a player wants freedom to go anywhere in Europe at 18 a short term contract with an independent USL team makes sense.This is a bummer, but not overly surprising. Candidly, I think a lot of the talented younger players are cognizant of the fact that Next Pro (NYRBII in particular) is very poorly run will little attention and limited in terms of growth for players of his caliber.
How many Tulsa players have went on to MLS or Europe? (Genuine question, I dont know.) RBNY2 is still producing MLS players and guys that are on track for Europe, like Tolkin.

RB2 was producing those players as a USL team, god knows what they're going to do in MLS Next Pro.Bogert is making it sound more like it will be easier to go Europe on a free than having a homegrown contract.

Can't imagine being persuaded to spend my late teenage years in fucking Oklahoma though. Weird move.

That's the thing -- says he signs with RB, he is going to MLS Next Pro year 1, guaranteed. Then what's the best case, he makes the bottom of the roster in year 2 and maybe makes a late push like Edelman?
For someone who want to go to Europe at 18, not an ideal path.

Haji Wright syndrome
What kinda deal years wise would he likely be offered?
3-4 years?

this one not really about next pro. Much bigger factors at playThis is a bummer, but not overly surprising.

True and if they dont offer high enough he may say hold for 2 years snd get bigger payday although they can point to tolkin new contract as willing to negotistehg is 5 years its not really great if you want to go to EU Asap
If he had trials and everyone trllling him he will be in Europe soon then tough to keep
There are lots of us players who went at 18 and having succes
I guess he could say no thanks but I want to stay with mls next pro team

he probably already has a verbal agreement with someone, or just really wants to go to europe asap. no mls club signs anyone to a 2-yr HG deal. but disappointing nonetheless, he's pretty good.
it is crazy how far USL has come though that its a legit development platform for independent clubs and thats good for the USA soccer ecosystem.

If you want to go to EU asap, you can still go. A team would buy you if your good enough.
The fact that he is picking USL over MLS just speaks volumes to where things are with player development in MLS and RBNY.

It does not. Each case is different. For players who want to go to Europe at 18, MLS is not the way to go, with some rare exceptions (Slonina -- but Slonina was good enough to start in MLS last year; I doubt Worth is anywhere close to that). For players who build up their value and experience before moving abroad (Tolkin, Edelman), it's the right path.

Wrong. The layer doesnt want to be beholden to any club in inside Europe. He wants to go where HE WANTS when hes 18, not where RBNY sells him to.If you want to go to EU asap, you can still go. A team would buy you if your good enough.

Of course, the Euro club can transfer or loan him.
We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Umm.. tyler was sold and later on moved to europe at 19. Edelman is not ready for europe and tolkin at age 20 will probably get sold this year.
I am not buying that its a case by case scenario. You attract the environment that you create. MLS reserves gave up playing division 2 soccer to create an undesirable MLS PRO league to save money. There is a difference between kids v kids and kids v men who are professional players. The intensity is much greater.
Its sad that USL teams are creating a better youth training environment than MLS teams. kids are seeing teams like louville, who sold Johnathan Gomez to real sociedad and josh wydner to benfica. It is more appealing to go the louville/usl route than MLS reserves because your playing better competition.
If Worth is really a top notch prospect, then he would be starting in MLS by 18. Rbny is not shy on playing young kids. By age 19-20 he would be sold to a European club. He clearly picked usl over MLS because he saw a better development path in the USL.
