[quote=Anonymous]Seeing the above posts about parents wishing schools to prefer more spiky kids or more well-rounded kids -- presumably that's what their kids are -- I want to add that spiky kids don't grow on trees, just like 7 footers who could shoot threes or defensive linemen who could run a 4.5. The NBA and NFL love these players, but there are only so many of them. After getting all the spiky kids they could get, schools still need well-rounded ones to fill up their classes. So there will be places for both types, albeit with the well-rounded ones facing significantly higher competition. [/quote]
