@Sue22 They were done recruiting by the time I decided to pursue recruiting in junior year and they have an unusally large recruiting class including walk ons. They were recruiting at 8th grade. My mind was on high school at 8th grade, not college, and I didn’t even know if I wanted to do college sports then. I was lucky some schools had spots open up due to transfers, injuries, etc. Those experiences you cited are not very positive - I feel bad for them. Were they happy after the transfer? Was it diffiuclt to transfer to another school?
@GKUnion - I think you’re right, being on the team will definitely help me transition. I am more worried about the lack of opportunities in the future.
