Wow! Just...wow! What a dips**t. I've often told my kid that if you are ever accepted to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or Stanford, you just go. No questions to ask. I don't care if you're a top 5 draft pick - you go.
roothog66, I am not sure the second sentence was very necessary.
From what KauaiDad has posted, it sounds like his son is very talented in the classroom and on the baseball field.
As I perceived the question, it was Cal Tech with an understanding of the baseball program and experience being similar to a HS program, or perhaps schools like Columbia and the Ivy's, for instance, with top academics and a chance for a very different and more challenging baseball experience.
Any coach that would say ANYTHING negative about a kid putting his academic priorities over his college baseball choice is exactly what I said he was.
This the first timeI totally agree with you root! Well said
