Message: [QUOTE="OttoForLife, post: 490884, member: 102"] I'm sure it's hard given how critical relationships are in the process, but it pretty amazing how much emphasis kids put on coaches when making a college choice. I would hope that more parents/mentors make sure kids are evaluating the school, program, other players, etc knowing how uncertain the coaching landscape can be...for whatever reason. While I don't fault a kid for rethinking his decision if a change is made, you do have to wonder why someone would put all their chips on one person vs. the larger culture/opportunity. Not picking on ZA in particular, but what would be said if Player X came to a program for Coach Y, and then transferred with said coach if they took another college job. Me thinks that would be frowned upon. [/QUOTE]
