[quote=Anonymous]Have her talk to current members of the team at the school. Find out practice requirements, time commitment, likelihood of all HS recruits actually getting playing time, etc. Separately, tell her how you are prepared to handle college financing. Are you only willing to pay for certain schools, and if so what is the list? Or are you willing to pay up to X amount per year and she needs to make up the difference? Etc. If you actually will not pay for her to attend this school, tell her that, but do be prepared for potential resentment of this. Otherwise, she needs objective information on which to base her decision, and the less of it (especially any opinions about her sports skills) comes from you, likely the better, as she will assume you are biased towards getting her to agree to whatever college you'd prefer for her to attend.
