I'll never forget what my son's future coach told him during a recruiting visit this summer. He said to be careful what you tell other coaches during the recruiting process. "We sometimes talk with each other about area recruits," he said. He said that he knew of two players in the previous year's recruiting class who had been black-balled by area coaches because they were caught "talking behind the coach's back."
Playing for a college and coach is a privilege, not a right.
