Recruiting and Talent

I have seen many times on message boards, chat rooms, web sites and blogs where parents are asking questions about their son or daughter's ability to play at the college level. These parents are describing their son or daughter, what they can do, the high school they attend, their stats, grades, etc. Then when it comes to their height, weight and size I find that they are lacking in those areas. But parents are blinded because of their son or daughter's ability. Keep in mind that they have watched their kids play for years and they think, like most parents, their kid is the best and they want the best. It’s only natural. This leads to parents’ spending money on camps, thousands of dollars on tournaments and even more money on overpriced recruiting services.
