very good point. its true.... starters , and the first off the sideline get the most minutes. in game they get the most vocal coaching as well. you make a long drive , get hotel room etc. and adding it up over 2 days in 4 games wind up on field for maybe 15 minutes. its really sad . no matter how overly optimistic and unrealistic some parents are about getting recruited or "scouted" , its a lousy deal when there are too many kids
