Message: [QUOTE="Bambrewer, post: 1052761, member: 4728"] Yeah the 92.86 percent was me sitting next to him when he was being interviewed by text. He asked me what he should tell the guy and I said tell him you 92.86 percent sure and see what he says. Then shy said but it's more like 98 and I said 98 just doesn't have a good ring to it. It's the little things that amuse me...lol. You know it's funny when shy got the offer I was searching the internet for stuff about it and I found this page and I wAs reading along seeing what people had to say. And I started thinking what was I going to do if people started saying he didn't look like a good prospect? So I sat by and reAd along for a while. Then I saw people starting to question why he wasn't getting. Offered and the speculation started to get moving. Plus the bad sparq score was coming out and the speculation on that would start. So I talked to shy and said I thought we may want to be up front and tell what his side was. He and I both agreed the truth would be better than people guessing that it would be better to put out the facts that academically he was borderline. Thankfully things have gone 180 degrees from there this quarter. But I have to tell you its a tonite of pressure on these kids. Shy has gotten some pretty good reviews but I can't imagine these kids that dominate there home division and are feeling pretty good then stumble across someone saying he looks small he's pretty slow etc. then you have the pressure of when to commit ... Is this this best option for me can I go somace better . Shy is sweating the day he has to call the other coaches and say sorry I'm commiting to .... Today thanks for everything. That's a pretty big deal to shy right now. He was just asking me what is he going to tell the other schools . Or after he commits what will he say if another school offers... These are things he is really worried about. I just told him relax enjoy the ride and we will work on a speech for the other teams lol [/QUOTE]
