When I see a list like this come up for questions I wonder if a kid is a stud and being realistic or dreaming. A 2011 player hasn't played his soph season yet.
My son is an '11. He's started putting together a list of schools from D1 to D3 based on academics and baseball. He wants to research the schools academically and see campuses whenever possible. Then he'll consider some camps.
Vanderbilt is his dream school. He's a very good player playing up one age group in the summer and played up two in the fall. He's noticeable in games (a HSBBW poster remembered him by his field presence ... and his son spiked the **** out of him*
). But he realizes he has to progress a lot baseball-wise in the next two years and become one of the best players in our state or it's nothing but a dream.
* fillsfan - I told my son I chat with the dad of the kid who spiked him. He laughed and accused me of consorting with the enemy. He loves to hate Tri-State. It's nothing against the team personally. He loves competing against them. When I asked him if he would be interested in playing for them, he said no since he said he wants to beat them in an elimination game before he runs out of eligibility.
Tell you son tryouts start next Saturday, it's not to late to come over the dark side.
