With my daughter getting committed and having the ability to talk with the coaches now, it's absolutely amazing how LITTLE time they have to watch all the kids. Do they make mistakes? Sure but they're human just like us. Like you listed above, there are a ton of factors that that come in to play outside of whether they can hit a ball well or make a play. LOTS of kids can do that. Coaches want to see how well they fit in to their program and whether or not they will be a successful STUDENT. Cause that's what it's all about right?
Student/Athlete, not Athlete/Student.
