Our son has been receiving telephone calls from coaches. Some coaches are not inquisitive while others are as direct as "Are other schools talking to you? Which ones? Have you taken any visits to these schools? Official or unofficial? and so on...". How candid should a candidate be when speaking to recruiters? What questions can he ask of the coach without feeling he is going to turn off a potential team? Do these coaches get turned off if the parents talk and ask some of the tougher questions? This is difficult for the kids because these coaches are very skilled at their recruiting trade while the kids are newbies.
