For many parents, especially those whose kid excels, it does become about recruiting. That's just the way it is. Yes it is a team sport, later Johnny can thank his mediocre team mates for helping him get into/help pay for a great college, by making him stand out. Hopefully they will remain friends ! Everyone can't be a superstar, but it is nice to know you helped someone get there too!
