Congratulations to the young lady and her parents.

It is unfortunate that there are so many jealous bitter people out there. It must be really tough on you when college coaches think that other players are better than your daughter.

To all of the parents who have unrealistic views of their kids abilities. Stop trying to come up with excuses as to why the offers are not rolling in. There is one reason a college coach does not make an offer. That reason is: "the coach does not think your daughter is better than the other players that the coach has watched". You can convince yourself that there are other reasons but there is only one. You can listen to the coach tell you "we have to wait", "we need to see her play again", "we need to see her grades and test scores", "we are taking our time" etc.. it is all BS. Coaches know what they like and when they see it and they will make an offer. The best coaches at the top programs are not afraid to pull the trigger if they like the player. Just be thankful the top players can only accept one offer. Also, there are great players who may not have the grades for every school that likes them. Keep the grades up and you will have more opportunities after the top tier kids are all committed. We are going through it now, mine is not a top tier player but we know that there will be more opportunity after the top kids commit.

Stop with the jealousy and hate. Be happy for the kids that have what it takes to be an early commit. Be hopeful and proud of your own. If they continue to work hard in the classroom and on the field things will work out.

Stop the hate and try to be as realistic as possible about your own kids ability.
