<p>I wasn’t knocking the coach, just the process. Our guess was Andover had long since filled all available spots and was being “nice” to our group of stragglers. </p>
<p>Still, it left a very bad and lasting impression on us. I’m glad your experiences there do not mirror ours.</p>
<p>Our particular coach was a very nice guy who talked basketball for 20 minutes according to our son. He told us he was a fifth year senior at Andover, on the b-ball team, who stayed on afterward to coach. Nice guy, terrible fit for the interview.</p>
