[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems almost unethical, like a bait and switch. Present yourself as a certain athlete and student (most top caliber schools care) and then once you get the commit transfer to an easier school and easier athletics. As a result, student athlete doesn’t get the same level of competition or experience  senior year both athletically or academically. College may not be getting what they thought they were getting. It’s not like your a perfect lacrosse player Junior year when they commit you, you still have to grow and improve in order to compete at the collegiate level. They don’t want the Junior you, they want what they believe you will become over the next 4-5 years. 🤔[/quote]

You are missing the bigger picture. This is the parents choice most of the time. Kid is good at lacrosse. On a strong club team in 8th grade. Private school club coach or HS coach tells parents he could be a D1 player should consider a top HS program. Parents make it work. Junior year kid is offered a D1 spot and given a $10-15k discount to Hopkins/Richmond/Denver/Duke.  Parents realize that college will now cost more than the private HS tuition even with the D1 scholarship. Decision is made to save as much $$$ as possible after all player is already committed.
