then that must make it ok and validates the early recruiting model, right? Michigan and Ohio State are very early too, no?


Alabama just offered an 8th grader a spot on their football team. This will soon extend to all NCAA sports. Its coming, the coaches are playing for big money jobs. They could care less what a bunch of parents on BOTC think. We can complain, or accept that it's coming. Or, if you are that dead set against it, start a movement to get rid of it. Raise the money, hire the lobbyists, change the rules. But I think it's a very dead issue


8th graders have gotten football offers for years now; that isn't the problem with lacrosse recruiting. That 8th grader (and the majority of football recruits) still won't have to decide/commit until senior year of college.
