At the end of the day, it's my son who made it happen. His play got the attention of the coaches. And he's the one who did all the talking with the college coaches. We didn't meet his future college coach for the first time until months after he made of offer. The first time we met him for the visit was the first time we had any contact with him. It's also the last time we had any contact with him. My son is in constant contact with him and it's their relationship, nothing to do with us at all. So, luck and stuff can tee stuff up. But, at the end of the day the kid has to make sure opportunities don't go wasted - and it's what the kid does that often creates the opportunities.
