You can tell that just by reading some if these responses. These people are delusional and drinking the cool-aide that the clubs are serving them. I have been through it with two already, one of which won an NCAA ring playing lax. Tell your kids to play hard and have fun and push the academics. Lacrosse may help get into a good school if the academics are there but that's about it. I cant tell you how many boys I know that may early commitments to schools that were not a good fit and ended up transferring after one or two semesters.
If your son loves lacrosse use it as a tool to get where they want to go but don't count on getting more than money to pay for books.
