Some coaches are willing to offer highly regarded kids early; some are not. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it necessarily is the wrong thing to do.


I've heard all this before. In every class there may be 1-3 kids in 8th grade you can make that sort of bold statement about. 50 kids, 200 kids? Now you're playing into a joke. I know it is easy for people in lacrosse to struggle for perspective, but there are good reasons why college recruiting in most other sports only starts to heat up junior year. Maybe football, baseball, soccer, swimming and basketball among others all 'just don't get it' with the arguments you're making.


Basketball and football have been offering MS and freshmen for years. If you think they are only giving offers out to juniors and seniors, you really are an idiot.
