Most parents will sign if that is really where the kid wants to go.
But not all will. Lot of helicopter parents out there.

Thats pretty sad then. Its not about you.
Don't disagree. But just google Alex Collins and Malik McDowell

No, his mother chose not to have him come. Keep up.He could have come to Su, he chose not too.

Dave Johnson, Rich Manning, Tony Scott, Mike Hopkins and Conrad McRae off the bench. With Anderson, four McDAAs. Mind boggling.
Without Anderson, we won BE league, lost in the final of BE tourney and in the S16. This team seriously under performed. Can't blame that all on Edwards. Not JB's finest showing.
Edwards was awful. I still have nightmares about that game. Minnesota had NBA talents in Willie Burton [a versatile 6-7 wing who was a big time scorer], and 6-4 guard Kevin Lynch, who absolutely abused Edwards that game.
Ugh...
Is Edwards going to be at the closing of Chuck's, hammer at the ready?
Probably my least favorite Syracuse basketball player ever.
That team was my freshman year at Syracuse. Then sophomore year...Richmond. Then probation.:bang:

Imagine if they also had ArinzeNot only a championship but one of the greatest college teams of all time.
Tyus Battle wanted to go to Michigan. It became obvious that his family wanted him closer so they can drive to his games after attending his brothers high school games. I believe Tyus succumbed to family pressure. Not to say he's not happy here nowCut the check.
I hope some of you in the recruiting threads understand that it isn't these kids making the decisions in some of these cases. Even if he wanted to go to SU and committed, his mother could have stopped it from happening by not signing the NLI.
Oh so you are to blame for all of thatThat team was my freshman year at Syracuse. Then sophomore year...Richmond. Then probation.:bang:
Most being the operative word.Most parents will sign if that is really where the kid wants to go.

Kenny also had a BMW and a Mercedes at GT. That's from a guy who rode in them.
Imagine what mom got.
She said she couldn't afford to come to SU for his official, but she got to GT for that one.

Didn't Coleman give up a technical by throwing a ball at a Minnesota player?
Lots of talent, but no discipline on that team. Edwards was a weak link, but point guard wasn't the only thing missing from that group.
On the other hand, I hope some of you in the recruiting threads understand that sometimes it IS these kids making the decisions. See: Thompson, Taurean -- who wanted to attend SU all along, but had to fight an uphill battle with his mother who wanted him to go anywhere but Syracuse.
There's no hard and fast rule. There are examples of kids making the decisions by themselves, families being influential, handlers from outside the family being influential, and every point in between on the continuum.
From that article;
"The taller Minnesota guards forced Boeheim to play more zone than he cared to and Lynch, in particular, burned it. In one stretch, the 6-foot-6-inch junior scored 12 of 13 Gopher points. First he put Minnesota in front 55-54 with a layup, then twice traded threes with the Orangemen."
What? Can one ever play enough zone?
in that game JB came out with Edwards not starting the second half and cuse up 39-35Didn't Coleman give up a technical by throwing a ball at a Minnesota player?
