My son was not locked in to Middlebury until late fall of 2018 (he graduated HS in May 2019).  Timelines are different for everyone, although I would say in this case it has worked out well for all concerned.

Oh, definitely,  timelines/recruiting journeys are different for everyone. My point was that in August many spots are already taken so the options for a player suddenly cut loose are far fewer. Their 2nd or 3rd choice schools could well have already filled all the coach supported spots. But yes, there *are* definitely spots available after August.

My experience is that most coaches want to be finish by March.

...a bunch of the teams ahead of Williams suffer massive losses to graduation (Tufts, Amherst, Colby, Bowdoin in particular).

I hadn't realized how few players Williams would be losing to graduation in 2022, nor how many of the returnees will be seniors. Never seen anything like it. The top 17 players by minutes played in 2021 are coming back, and if all the juniors return they'll have 10 seniors on the roster in fall 2022, 9 of whom played in almost every game in 2021. Trinity and Conn won't lose much to graduation either, but the scale of Williams' potential retention is bonkers.

The potential graduation losses at Tufts, Bowdoin, Amherst, and Colby are big, for sure. Hadn't really grasped the scale of that either.

TrueGrit

Because of Covid this was a unique and challenging year for all of the schools. Any coach  had to deal with players who took time off, returned and thus were not lost to graduation, as well as three groups of recruits: High school class of 2020 who had taken a year off before enrolling in college ( probably offered their spot in the fall of "19) : Class of 2021, normal entering freshman: and those recruits who by late summer 2021 may have already been pretty far down the road to committing,  or had even  been offered a spot ( pending admission to the school). Will be difficult to follow what happened to the last group as admissions had not been formally offered - but withdrawing an offer in the late summer / early fall could have led these kids with limited options.  Those recruits in high school classes of '20 and '21 had likely been offered their spots in the fall of their senior years, applied early decision and withdrew applications from all other schools. I'm sure any coach,  program or school with character would honor their commitment to any player recruited and admitted though this process.  This may be a situation some of the schools are still working though - although It seems most of the NESCAC and Ivy schools found a way to handle it appropriately, as evidenced by their expanded rosters ( examples Bates 36, Cornell 36 ).

Hey NESCAC fans -

Just posted my interview with Coach Kyle Dozetell of Tufts University.  Fantastic conversation and learned a lot.  Hope you enjoy watching as much as I had making it.

Have known Kyle for close to 20 years. Great interview.

Will add something that is really cool.  Anybody has followed me knows that I try not to take things too seriously.  And starting this YouTube channel is the same.  I still contend I am nobody just a guy who enjoys talking about soccer.  However I think I have reached a peak and may need to consider retirement as I have hit the top of my game.

On GoTuftsJumbos.com on their headliners, they put a news item linking to the interview.  Am done.  Not sure it gets any better.

Thanks for all the positive feedback and support.  Very very appreciative.

Asking for a friend..

Potential SA inquiring about teams in league that employ a "wingback" formation. Disclosure: I have no clue what this means as soccer is not my sport. Any other place or resource that could be researched to find this out?

Thanks in advance, appreciate any guidance on the subject. Posting this to the league threads that have shown mutual interest.

wing backs are the outside defenders with responsibility to be part of the offense, when their team is in possession of the ball, a great example of this was Marcelo at Real Madrid.

d4_Pace

I think people are confusing the terminology between an outside back and a wingback. While all outside backs are now asked to play an attacking role a wingback specifically refers to the outside player in a 3-5-2/3-4-3. So a wingback is the player in a back 3/back 5 system where as an outside back is the player in a formation with a back 4. In the back 3 a wingback is essentially a hybrid between an outside back/outside mid/winger hence the term wingback.

camosfan

yeah! wing back tend to refer to the outside guys in a back five.

With Decision Day approaching, here's another Class of '26 update, culled from the usual public sources (and thus probably not to be taken as gospel truth). Noteworthy as usual to see how few Amherst recruits are acknowledged prior to ACMSOC's own announcements -- poor lads must be ordered not to say a peep in advance...LOL. New stuff in red.

Very sad news out of Middlebury:

Panther alum Kye Moffat, Class of 2019, recently died after a tragic ski accident in Tahoe.
