I agree with most that has been stated here. I could use example after example from a coach's perspective, a fan's perspective and a parent's perspective. I chose to use ours so I was not getting other players involved. I understand part of it from picking players for travel teams. There were parents I would not take. There were kids that I did not want. There were kids who would bail on me in a heartbeat. Then there were some kids that were great players just did not fill the voids I needed.
I have a good idea why some offered my son and why some didn't. All of the above and more reasons fit into this equation. It is just interesting how some coaches see some things and others don't.
For the record, the coach contacted us and told me he was not going to make an offer after the program had told my son, his summer coach, and his school coach they were going to make an offer. I believe the velocity thing was just an easy way out. It was fine, just business as has been said many times on here.
