Shame on you for posting the status of young men who are barely in high school1 come on now, Class of 2015? It's hard enough transitioning to high school without all this pressure. I think it should be against NCAA rules to even talk to or solicit a student/athlete before his junior year in HS. Let them alone and let them develop as a player and as a student. This is part of what Dr. Friday warned us about for a long time, the overhype of college athletics!
