@2022NYC posted:I agree it is awful times for incoming college freshmen. I know a kid get his SEC offer rescinded and was fortunate to get an opportunity at another D1. A teammate of my kid changed his D1 commitment 4 times! HA, Ivy, B10 and now ACC, he has a lot of ability and I am confident he has the mindset to succeed and a cruel part of me is happy he is sticking it back to the coaches who started this merry-go-round. But on a more supportive note, my kid's other HS teammate was a stud lefty torching 90s at 15. He committed to an ACC school then got TJ surgery. Missed his junior and senior season. The coach honored the agreement and he is in school now taking summer classes and will be given an opportunity to make the team.
I don't believe it is a bad time for incoming freshman, if they make the right choice in the first place.
Instead of being the small fish in the big pond, why not be the big fish in the small pond and be the man!
I have seen a lot of players in mid D1, D2 programs get drafted. Most don't get lots of $$. Some have been first day pics, others not but have made the ML team.
