Andrija Novakovich signed with MU, but decided to sign a professional contract in England instead. He is considered to have an outside shot at the 2018 World Cup team. Played high school at Muskego.
This was buried in the futbol thread as a possibility on one of those future lists
In all seriousness can MU start to be considered a "blue blood" soccer school. With recruits like these and the men and women winning consistantly they have a pretty quality program.

Really? The men's soccer team has 1 NCAA Tournament win in program history and we're talking about becoming a blue blood program? That's one GAME win. One around of 32 appearance. Not one National Title. One win. Come on.

Hey! It's collegiate soccer not basketball - that is a blue blood for college soccer
I'd also say these guys are soccer blue bloods.

They have a crap load of players in MLS and overseas.
Including Yedlin (USMNT) and Nagbe (Timbers):

8 National Titles, second most ever
18 College Cup Appearances, most ever
.746% in College cup, best ever...no one else even above .600%
MU men are really starting to recruit at a high level. He took over a real basement team and has really turned the corner. One only need to look at what he did at uwm with less resources to see what he is capable of.

Yep. And that page hasn't been updated to include their recent appearances in the tourney (not that they made much noise).
