Little over the top that Ty Xanders publishes rosters. I know these are recruiting tournaments but it isn't best to make 13,14,15,16 year olds public figures. Didn't work out for Lindsay Lohan or Danny Bonaducci so well. This world of fantasy schoolboy lacrosse is crossing some lines toward pedophilia. Boy crush write ups and tweets on pre pubes? Now I like it when coaches recruited my son, but all that happens without this.
I'm sure the event coordinator asked him to include in his preview. Believe it or not they're trying to help those kids get noticed by college coaches.
Yes Ty is all about the kids, not page hits. $$$$$$$$$. College coaches have access to rosters. The general public will not recruit anyone.
Thank you. That is exactly the relevant point. College coaches who are recruiting these kids don't need to be checking a blog site for rosters and where the kids go to school. It is in the event programs they are provided with. My concerns for my 2017 and his club mates and for my middle school son is this has become a joke of a sport. Lacrosse is varsity social media masquerading as a sport being played on the fields. It is all fine and well to be flattered to be recruited and get an opportunity, but I think it gets phony when club ball is all about how individuals showcased selfishly rather than showing team play and lacrosse IQ. Playing lacrosse like a team and making the extra pass and smart slides didn't hurt the Turtles 2017s. I more 2017 teams would play like that. Yes, Ty Xanders is a blight on the game. That whole thing celebrates phony crap. Why NCAA coaches would even talk to him is beyond me. Kid couldn't letter in volleyball at a Maryland high school
