Just based on the brief response you quoted, it doesn't seem that the HC is particularly high on your son but that may be a misinterpretation of a very small snapshot.
This is the HC's 2nd season, so he is building "his" team. He quite honestly seemed super gungho on him back in August. Promised him to be a 2-way player, told him he would definitely get freshman playing time, told him to get his application in on the 1st day available so that he could get him the most $$. He has been texting my son since August just to keep in touch, sent him a hat, sweatshirt, and bumper stickers. So to me, it sounds like he is really excited about him. Does he do this with other players? I'm sure. To my son, it's baseball first and then education (unfortunately)... but he's honest. I just feel like we made so many bad decisions in the past, I just don't want to make another.
