That's what I got reading the last few paragraphs where the trainer is talking about the 'new wave' of coaches using 'statistics' and 'analytics' such that this would be the 'preferred way' to recruit kids. This may not be genetic manipulation per se, but it is essentially the same thing. These kids are being 'designed' to be football players/athletes. It is really awful.

Think Ivan Drago with or without the steroids.
