I generally agree. However, are you telling me that you would turn down an offer from Stanford, UPenn, Duke, etc. I can you from experience on the girls side that this is the timeframe whether we like it or not right now. Unless the NCAA steps in, it is not changing. So make your choice.




What are they offering them .. Some of these schools will still cost 30K a year .sonyhe only ones committing are the ones who's parents can pay for it . Not because they are more talented. My kid may want to go to Yale and he is better then 99 percent of the kids out there he still most likely will not be going because of financial concerns . Just an example.
