[quote=Anonymous]There’s plenty of baseball talent in the area. A good portion of them could play at SJC but won’t because of the requirement to play diamond skills as a prerequisite. That’s the way the Gibbs family has worked ever since the father was the head coach. If you weren’t recruited or a “favorite” it was evident and they would do very little to help get you to the next level. What families need to realize is that you don’t need a program like SJC to get your child a college scholarship. Nowadays it’s all about how you perform on the showcase circuit, which is why these kids that are leaving the program prefer to play on more prominent/nationally recognized travel programs. That and kids are committing to colleges as early as their Freshman year so you don’t need to play on the “best” area team. I’d much rather have my child play at a program where the head coach measures his worth on how his least talented player is developing not just the chosen few.[/quote]
