No, Mark, 91 does not have better holdbacks (what even is that?) because you help them hold back at the right school. That is a preposterous theory from your own mind.

The 2022...I mean...2023..... and 2025 91 rosters have stayed intact because they had Mark's personal supervision, and the other kids and parents were willing to take Mark's advice and #1 hold back, #2, get the ball to the Millon kid at all costs, #3 just trust that if the team is highly ranked, by default, your son MUST be getting high quality developmental training, and by default he WILL be recruited to D1. What an insane proposition....one that only lax parents would believe.

By the time they realize those maneuvers were just part of the Mark Millon Show, LLC, they're sitting on the sideline of a Connecticut tournament, paying $300/night for lodging while watching a bunch of 20 year olds from Texas play in their kids' spots. And reviewing Millon's email to them about how their son should consider a couple post-grad years and maybe apply to a D1 school as a freshman when he is 21. #wisdom #eliteplacement #passitto9 #9isopen

MM has shown time and time again that he has what it takes to get your kid to a D1 program. Look at his extra programs that tie in with his top 91 program. Hardly anyone out there doing it better, FACT !

I think your most recent claim was "nobody does it better in Maryland, NOBODY. FACT." So I'm glad you've backed off of that ledge for this nuanced version.

I think it's fair to point out that MM's idea of "what it takes" is telling starters' parents that their boy needs to repeat 8th grade if he wants to continue starting for 91, wants to get into an MIAA-A program (not next year, but 18 months from now), and get recruiters' attention in 10th grade. If you just do that, yes, MM will provide you all kinds of network connections, as he should. But really, those parents and those athlete's are making Mark's job quite easy, "here's a 150lb, 5'10" 8th grader who has played club ball since 2nd grade, yes, true, he is almost 16! Which makes him very mature!" Yeah, most coaches would want to see that kid.
