What is so remarkable about these posts is that everyone here thinks there son is getting a full ride and playing at Duke or 'Cuse. AND that college coaches are telling their 8th grader to hold them back a year.

Anyone who has coached PAL knows what a huge advantage one year has over another. So... one year older makes a huge difference in athletic ability, LAX IQ, size and strength. And guess what, a huge number of these kids will not play in college (D1, D2 or D3)

Give me a break. It may be "legal" but it's wrong.
