You obviously don't know the game. There are still many 19's out there that will be making commitments this Fall, so to think there is some great travesty out there with 20's is a false hope. You either are good enough, or you aren't. There are great placements Junior and Senior year at D1, D2, and D3. Relax, worry about yourself dude. As you look out the side and rear windows, there's something coming right at you out the front. Try to enjoy something real, my friend.


Uh - there are huge number of kids in the MIAA that re-classed just so they could shine against younger kids and get verbal commitments. That game didn't pay off too well for the ones that aren't committed...


numbers of kids who reclass by repeating 8th or 9th grade is not huge. a handful each year. kids who had a prefirst - probably around 25% of each class - give or take 10% depending on which school.
