| College Park's Alexia Sanders (middle) |
Over the weekend, I found out three additional 2013 players had made a decision on where their next stop would be. Courtney Latham (Tulane), Brentney Branch (SFA) and Alea Godfrey (Bethune Cookman) joined Christin Inman (Northwestern) and Alexia Sanders (Rice) as players who are ranked in my GPR 2013 Top 30 to give a verbal. Getting it done early is a growing trend and if you're sure, why not because so many things can happen and many of them are not good but I always like to put this link at the bottom out there for parents and players to read and hopefully they comprehend the message.
Throughout the years, I can't tell you how many parents have told me they thought their children would play for a Top 25 program like North Carolina or LSU, mind you some of these players didn't make any All District teams or were even starters on their high school teams however someone placed that idea in their heads. The main thing is getting an education, free or subsidized, out of this whole thing and although most won't have a chance to receive offers from Baylor or Stanford, getting a degree is the icing on the cake.
Please revisit the link below, it can be an eye opener for some parents and players. The first link is regarding and titled EXPOSURE and explains how bad exposure will hurt you in the long run along with having a good work ethic on your own. The second link is titled EVALUATING which is something that's truly hard for some parents and players to do. I didn't write the articles, in fact I don't agree with everything that's written in either however much of it is true and it's worth a look so you won't be shocked when it's all said and done.
EXPOSURE 101
