Anyways, these players are put on an accelerated high school program. They spend most of the day in class and are given tutors and any other type of academic help they need is given to them.
Freddy will probably earn his HS diploma in the next couple months...probably before he plays a minute of MLS action.

I remember hearing something about that but forgot; makes sense and is actually a good system when you think about it.
