You're pointing the finger at the wrong guy...
My DD is playing for the love of the game.
After seeing what we did last summer and fall in travel ball, she found the best fit for a college, and chose that one.
Flying across the country to play in front of Super Awesome U., to try to get a scholarship and her name on a ranking list...never happened.
Didn't mean to point fingers, was just responding to your post. I have modified my post to be more inclusive.
