Curious what coaches say when they contact your kids....
Do they say things like... "We see you as a roster filler who likely will have a huge uphill climb to play"
or
Do they say things like "We see you starring in this program if you develop like we think you can"
Remembering back to our experiences, we heard things like the latter expression. Coaches expressing confidence and saying some awfully flattering things.
How many of you were comfortable with the story going in but found things markedly different after getting there? What are some of the things current recruits are hearing out there?... "We are out of money but we love you!" "You remind us of (fill in blank of famous player's name)" etc.
No actual names (coaches, players, or universities) need be forthcoming in this thread. Thought it might be helpful for people to cross-reference the recruiting experience rather than experiencing it in a vaccum.
