This isn't waiting in line for concert tickets first come first served. If mr X from 88+3 says I have 3 kids u need to see then they will be invited. If they deserve it who cares.
The parents of the players who spent &$$$, took time off from work and missed school.
The wondering/ worrying of your son made the cut--he played well, was told he did well---
All could be avoided if you knew who to payoff.
No way this player/s are superstars who came into their own one week prior to check-in at UMBC.
So please, stop justifying the fact that the Directie was paid off.
I've been to plenty of showcases where a kid makes the all star team and isn't even at the showcase but was signed up..what does that tell you. Some kids that have already verbally committed ( whatever weight that has) will not be the best at their position for their age come senior year of HS and certainly not college. If you are fortunate enough to be one of the in kids or parents take the money. You can always say you lost interest when your not playing or say it wasn't a good fit. Only the parents are the ones for some reason feel embarrassed.
