I think many have touched on one main idea here. He will have to accept his role on the team to make it a worth while experience if he stays. I would hate to see any kid quit - I wholeheartedly agree with coachmay - but we don't know if this kid can handle his role if it is too little of play time for HIM. Every player has to understand the role that they play on the team - and that role can change, too! I would love to think that he will get his chance to do something that HE values as important on this team. I'd like to think that the coach feels this way, too. But I guess we don't know all that might be going on in this particular situation. It is a great question raised - mom, let us know how it works out. My best to your son in his senior year! I hope what ever he does, he does well!!
