My son is a junior a 2010 graduate. I have gone through the process once before with a son who went D1 and is currently pitching in pro ball. We are getting an early jump in attending various schools and sending letters. It is interesting the parenst of the seniors on our team who thought our head coach would help has done very little to nothing. They are telling me they wish they would have been more pro active.
I have always told my son to play mutiple positions to make himself more valuable. As we visit schools the coaches are excited he can pitch, catch and play middle infield. I believe these kids with the new rules and limited monies will reap the benefits.
