[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have no idea how involved Capital’s RD is. Her contacts are not to be believed and she is engaged every step of the way throughout the player’s recruiting journey. She schedules individual meetings with each player at the start of the recruiting year to learn the player’s list of target schools and set expectations re: what each player is responsible for. She provides timeline and delivery calendars for each player re: emails to coaches to promote themselves and express interest. She provides intel from college coaches to help players decipher true interest vs performative interest. She sends real-time texts to players from the sidelines as she works coaches tents during recruiting-season games relaying interest from her longstanding coaching relationships. She calls coaches to market Cap players to her personal contacts to help distinguish them from the mountain of other talented players seeking their attention. Comparatively, other clubs have a team parent hand out player bio sheets to coaches in the tents - which is one of the most awkward / cringiest exchanges you’ll ever see as parents are not allowed to speak to coaches until 9.1 before junior year.  Anyone who says club RDs are overvalued has either never been thru the Capital process or never been the beneficiary of it. Mock it at your daughter’s peril if you turn down the opportunity to be a part of Cap’s proven system. [/quote]Here is what you just said:  She sends out texts and emails.  And calls and bugs coaches on the phone and in person.
It's pretty whack that you think that trumps what coaches see on the field.  Is that how you make purchases or decisions that are basically your livelihood and lifestyle?  Of course not.  But you want people to believe successful college lacrosse coaches are the only group in the world that does.

Ever see beautiful houses in your neighborhood that sit on the market for months on end because they’re listed on Redfin? The service doesn’t do anything to market the property but saves their clients money by just putting the property online. Homebuyers are online - they see the house just like all the others, right? Redfin is a brand name - buyers will just flock to it, right? Wrong: listing agents promote properties to get them in front of buyers. They send home buyers listings and engage with them to see how each one may / may not fit their needs. They are in frequent communication with buyers to see if their needs change over time. They tell them which homes have contracts and are off the board (and those that will go quickly to heighten demand), which inform 
listing agent discussions with home sellers. These homes move fast - they don’t languish. I can’t make the argument any simpler than this. If you think Cap’s RD “bugs” coaches she wouldn’t be as successful as she is. [/quote]OMG, now they are houses.

Once again for the people in the back.  If players are good, coaches will come watch and they may get offers.  If they are not good (or your house is not good for simpleton here) vis a vis the last 2 Capital teams, the opposite is true.
