[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So - op?
Is your kid being recruited or not?[/quote]
It really doesn't matter. When it comes to football its not like Georgetown is Ohio State or Alabama. All OP needs to do is call and schedule time with the coach.

It does matter. Either the kid is good enough to play at that level or he isn't. Not to be cold about it, but high school hobbies can feel all consuming and important, but they don't always translate to a college career. [/quote]
No, it really doesn't when you're talking about Georgetown. 
Having navigated my 4 star recruit son through the D1 process I can tell you that if you think the only kids capable of playing D1 are only those on the coaches radar, you're wrong. There's areas of the country where there's virtually zero recruiting activity. There's schools that have no visibility to the recruiters, and high school coaches who have talented kids, but no clue how to help them navigate the process. Plus, we're talking Georgetown which, because they are a FCS school not BCS, don't have the big bucks and the same level of visibility as the schools that compete hard for a small group of recruits. Georgetown doesn't get the 5 star and 4 star recruits for football. 
If OP's kid is half of what he claims the kid to be, he can get his tape to the coach, have a meet and greet, and practically be guaranteed to be on the roster. On top of that, it sounds like he's a good, all around kid so if I were OP I would get him in front of the coach ASAP and try to translate that into an admissions boost. [/quote]
