Yeah I hear ya. What is she in 8th grade? I almost feel like I need a shower after reading about recruiting children that young.

I strongly doubt she actually has an offer in hand at this point!

9th grade.
You gotta start developing a list of players to watch. If you wait until they're sophs, it's probably too late.

Great. I'll be starting Medicare then.

I've not turned 50 yet, but started getting AARP crap in the mail. Good grief!!

Let's at least get Wilson out of the way- I don't have the stamina either!

Does the NCAA allow expenses for diapers?

Some of you guys are making me feel totally ancient. I'm old enough to be eligible for AARP super senior status.

In the meantime, this thread strangely coincides with my reaction to a thread on the men's board today related to a certain recruit. I know it's the business these coaches are in to be chasing after kids for their programs, but they must be just a little put off by it. Suddenly, it seems annoying.

Years ago I was at the annual Calhoun pre-season dinner for the UConn Hartford Alumni Association branch. He walks by our table and one of the guys says to him he'd heard about this Florida kid. Without batting an eye, Calhoun instantly replies " Yeah, 8th grader down in Jacksonville, we're watching him."

They send that stuff to you based on appearance. You must look 60.



Just kidding they have sent it to me for a decade so you sound on schedule.
