Despite it being nearly week 5 of the college soccer season, Marshall is adding two players to its roster. 1. An international student that’s just joining for the first time. 2. A player from last year that was drafted 10 months ago, but is now (late September) deciding to return to school and will play this week. Now, it’s very possible they have some clever admins that have done this all by the book. But there’s also a word (that VT doesn’t live in) where these things just happen for schools that prioritize winning over ‘the right way.’ You’ll often hear, “Marshall (and Vermont) won a national championship in soccer. How come we can’t?” And it’s because things like that slide at other schools. Not saying it’s wrong. Not saying it’s right. Just the way it goes around Blacksburg.
