I know there was one thread on here awhile back where one parent was saying his kid got "discovered" at a Headfirst showcase and wound up at that school. To me, that is the definition of discovered--where a kid first got seen playing baseball by a college coach at a showcase or travel tournament and then wound up playing at that college. That does not disqualify the kid who wanted to get a chance to play for that school and reached out to him ahead of time to let him know he would be at that upcoming showcase or tournament.

I have to believe that there are some here on this forum with a story like that.
