If a D1 college coach pulls your kid aside at a midwest eval camp and says, "I was impressed by you today, get in touch with me". How excited should we really get? Does this happen a lot more than we think? Does it at least tell us he is close to having the tools to pitch at the D1 or D11 level?
I know many of you are probably going to say "duh", but keep in mind that this process is new to us and we haven't been around the block on this recruiting thing. We are a little skeptical about the process and are trying to be as objective about our son's abilities as we can be. Parents are usually the worst judges on a kid's abilities, but we have also been leery of assoc. scouts, pitching coaches, etc. that tell him he will be able to play for many years to come. I guess it may be a way for us to keep his (and our) emotions in check and prevent great disappointment if things don't work out.
I should post more often. Obviously keeping things pent up results in long messages.
