All of these family members think their kid is a superstar and it’s the “other” that is holding them back.
I taught a sophomore, maybe 5’8”. He is probably quick but he has a **** attitude and isn’t that smart.
I asked him how the season went. He just sat the bench for varsity. Like he wasn’t cracking the depth chart because the players above him are way better.
“Coach won’t give me a chance”
Yep, I’m sure the high school coach wants to play the least capable players and you are on the bench for no other reason.
One kid transferred. When I asked about him, “he following his own path”. It’s like dude, he can’t get on the roster at a crappy KY high school.
AAU and other leagues just blow these kids heads up
