(my 2 cents)
#1:Ivy and Juco are worlds apart.......
#2: Go where you are loved, and have an honest chance to play.
#3: Appreciate those that give you real evaluations, then make the best choice you can.
#4: Make sure that your kid finds happiness in the process, otherwise it ain't worth it and he won't do it.
#5: It's a grind, so don't forget to smile! (you'll attract the right people)
