GoBlue, if a kid is not one of the coach's recruits -- and doesn't have another hook -- then he probably needs a 35-ish score on the ACT,

One MI played against my son in American Legion ball. He wanted to play baseball in the Ivy league (had academic chops, I think he was #1 in his class in HS). Turns out he applied and was accepted to 6- or7 of the Ivies. Nice player with some speed. Walked on to one of the Ivies. His "other hook" which I didn't know about, was that he was one of the best violin players not in state but regionally.
