Thanks Bob - love the response!
We always need to have our son's best interests when they are invited/offered at any school. My perspective is academics come first. Chances of playing ball at any level above college (any level - D1 through DIII) are very slim. For many parents that may sound harsh - and I'm sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear. Before I hear all the "what's your son's GPA, ACT/SAT score" - he's not going to be a brain surgeon, top 15% of his 900+ class and we're preaching grades first.
On another note - I'm a parent that can't afford to travel / or won't take my son out of high school to play on the PG games that are always going on - can someone please explain to me where all these kids come from? I'm confused - are all these parents putting athletics first before school? Seems to me that some folks are all about the PG rankings, is that people think that is what is takes to get coaches to notice you? Not in our case - and NO, our son is not a pitcher. Don't get me wrong - I have nothing against PG.
Please don't ask me how my son is doing - we're pleased with his baseball skills as well. Tough Texas District. Started sophomore year - 1st team all district.
Be happy for your son - have you asked him what's important to him?
