"The CEO of your company did not sit back and wait around for someone to find him or her. He pushed the process".
This is my point. The boys have to be the ones actively engaged in this process, not the Dads. I am all for supporting and offering advice to my son, but unfortunately, early recruiting has made a large group of parents in the lacrosse world make it more about them, and not their boy. I am glad early recruiting wasn't around when my two older sons were in high school. As 9th graders, they were both dead set on playing D1 lacrosse. But when the offers arrived in 10th and 11th grade, they decided to accept offers to play a different sport in college at the D1 level. I am now involved again with my 9th grader, and as a "smart parent" will let him decide what he wants to do with his future.
Well all these 9th graders are making a Verbal commitment not signing their name in blood. They all can back out or change their minds at any time. I do not care if the UNC coach is made at my son or me if he changes his mind to go play for a IVY league school or go play football his Sr. year. Parents check on their kids homework and grades all four years. Parents have all ways been involved in their kids lives. My point being parents involved should not be looked down on.
