Polkey ... First, from 13u to 16u I ran my own not for profit team with four dad coaches who were former college players. When it was time for showcase ball I investigated (or had already heard) about all the showcase teams of interest. Just by being involved in the game as the parent of a budding player I heard a lot. I knew which programs to avoid or what to look for within those programs. I also asked a lot of questions of other parents. My son made a good choice with my input. I did the same regarding college recruitment.
From what I know of the Dirtbags had we lived in NC and my son had been asked to play for the Dirtbag's A team we would have jumped all over it. Any program who would have a class act coach like Kenny May (Coach May on this board) is where I would want my son playing.
