    So a player who's already committed to a college, wants to leave your team, gives you notice and you threaten to mess up her scholarship if she leaves? Scum of the earth buddy, scum of the earth.....

    Would love to know the organization so I can boycott them. That is lower than low.

    Never ceases to amaze me how some coaches make it about them instead of who it is really about: the girl putting it all out there for her dream.

    We have got to find a way to vet out these scumbags, before they can cause more harm!

    Not at all familiar with this situation but we do have laws—both civil and criminal. And we've all been known to contribute to kids who need us.

    I know who its not

    Pretty sure any college coach wouldnt let that happen as long as the player is playing for a similar level of team.

    As you know, recruiting requires respect and trust. Successful TB coaches have proven that they can be trusted by the college coach and open doors to the future. If a TB coach play games with a recruit/college coach, the respect is out the window as well as the trust and that door will close between that TB program and that college. And by the way, college coaches talk A LOT among themselves. Word of bad behavior, either by a TB coach or recruit will spread.

    So, it's best for all involved to what their "P's and Q's" :)

    one of the current problems with this organization is the rather large head of the guy in charge....its currently catching up with him as his rep gets crappier every year. the question I have is quite simple: How much of this do parents find acceptable in the effort to play in a large organization which gets a fair share of attention and why would you play for someone like this? wouldn't you be worried about your daughter, especially when she sees the inappropriate crap that is constantly going on? is it really worth the risk? Some of these parents are on this board and you know who i'm talking about...what if it was your daughter? would you sue him or shoot him?

    If somebody was going to shoot him, it would have happened by now. He is a "Teflon Don" nothing seems to stick. His reputation is getting around with college coaches. He will get his one day. In the mean time. Lot's of parents selling themselves to the devil and supporting his personal finances.
