If my son was an early recruit I would be proud to. But I think early recruiting is terrible for the sport. It has lead to the players and their parents putting more of an emphasis on 4th thru 8th grade. The clubs have exploded exploiting this dilemma with parents. I believe this grade base garbage in youth sports is a direct result of this. Along with more parents deciding to hold their child back at a latter grade too. The pressure being put on this kids by their parents and coaches before they are 14 is sheer nonsense and not good for the majority of kids.
