[quote=Anonymous]Well OP, I spent thousands of hours and time with my kids in sports and they aren’t playing in college or growing pro, either. lol They did get into Ivies on academics —though if you asked them they’d rather we let them play college sport at the very low academic schools that reached out to offer spots on teams. We had to explain the ability to look to the future and weigh options. Imagine getting an injury that took you out of the game or sitting on the bench for a coach you end up hating—would you still want to be at that other school? If they couldn’t answer “yes” it was a non-starter. Life is a series of choices. You made yours. Regret really doesn’t serve any purpose. [/quote]
