Grateful,
I will add this and say that if they really want to go to a certain school they should try to attend a camp at that school so the coach has an opportunity to see them in person.
I tend to believe that most coaches will not go on hearsay and to get to a particular school that coach will need to see them play at some point before they offer a spot.
For most players that means they MAY have to spend some money on a showcase or camp where a particular coach will be in attendance.
There of course is an exception to every rule.
They should start with the letters, emails, and calls first to test the waters.
