The funny thing is that his target market is going to be the hispanic market...which he failed to engage while at the Fire (and was responsible for). That failure gave rise to the Montagua, Jambalaya, and White Star clubs so it is a more crowded market now.
I disagree. The reason why Julio couldn’t get a strong footing in the Latin community of Kenner and Metairie was because the Fire Board wouldn’t let him make progress there. The Fire is run by all Jesuit alums and the current entire Jesuit soccer coaching staff. Making money and stockpiling boys on the Jesuit soccer program is their main focus. Julio and the Latin American community is not who or what they care about. Hence the rise Motagua, White Stars, JPSA and Jambalaya.

Yes the remaining director after Julio and Louie left is the Jesuit coach, but the rest of your premise is false. There are kids from almost every NOLA area school at Fire. The Lafreniere campus was never a big Jesuit feeder.
