What do you do today’s environment in terms of recruiting with a HA kid who is also a high performer (let’s say not on anyone’s radar in terms of being recruited top D1 schools, but still pretty good)? @Francis7 made me think about this 😁.
Do they go JUCO and live their dream and possibly transfer until it ends? Or do you just say that their intelligence will make tons more $$ and go strictly HA? Do they still have a chance at HA to get to the big league through development in a HA school?

It's not either/or IMO.

There are lots of great HA schools with solid baseball programs, at all levels of D1: Vandy, Duke, Wake, ND, Clemson, UVA, Cal, Stanford, USC, UCLA, UCI, UCSD, UCSB, Texas, Ivy League, Rice, Northwestern, BC, VA Tech, GT, Davidson. I'm sure I'm missing some.
