If you’re an ambitious club in USL (or MLS, for that matter) looking for proven championship-caliber talent, you can do a lot worse than mining the New York Red Bulls II 2016 roster.
The II-team won the USL league and Cup double in 2016, and promptly - as its habit regardless of the outcome of the previous season - disbanded its squad as it refocused around RBNY’s development and recruitment priorities for the next season. Junior Flemmings contributed seven goals to NYRB II’s 2016 campaign and was retained for 2017, when he added another 10 goals in all competitions to his II-team tally.
