In D3: The Mighty Ducks, the USA Ducks from D2 are given scholarships to a Prep School. After hearing that Bombay bailed on the Ducks, Dean Portman decides to stay in Chicago until Bombay convinces him to go. He is the only Duck that has a reason for not being there. Jesse Hall also was part of the USA Ducks and he wasn't given a reason for not being there. Someone could say he had a "hatred of snobs" (see first film with Banks), but at least mention him in some way so we aren't going, "If Jesse was there he'd be punching those snobs out." The same thing happens from the first film to D2 as five ducks are missing there. My logic is that either Charlie only gathered the ducks that were good, Jesse, Guy, Banks, Fulton, Goldberg (didn't know about another goalie), Connie (is good and with Guy), and Averman (Comic relief). Or Bombay had a limited number of slots since Hendrix would be chosing x amount of players around the country to be on the team. Whatever the reason was at least mention it rather than letting people figure it out themselves.
