This isn't about a "low ceiling" but rather finding your own path -- the happy adult is the one who is in control of their own life and thank heavens your kids will be free of your narrow-minded "guidance" soon.

    Please explain to me how Ray Lewis or Mario Balotelli would make a better employee than the master electrician who runs her own business. Remember the overwhelming majority of professional athletes are bankrupt within 2-3 years of retiring, so they haven't a clue about how to "handle their own business." What a gas bag.
    A trades professional and an athlete are two completely different career paths, and difficult to compare. Trades is very solid and noble. The athletics profession includes Don Shula, Jim Harbaugh, Phil Jackson, and Doc Rivers who have had remarkable careers. The latter is more difficult and requires some luck, but has great rewards. Key is you don't have to be a world famous athlete to be successful in athletics. It is a huge industry with many paths to success. Many great figures in Coaching and Broadcasting were very mediocre on the field. What you want most for your kid is to pursue what they are passionate about. If you and they sit down and calculate which career path will net them the highest lifetime salary, that is the wrong approach.

      It's my understanding that a verbal commitment is a
      gentlemans agreement for the kid to attend a certain
      College.It doesn't have any legal standing.

        So, any more 2013 commitments? Or, could we at least get a list of "stars" from the high school shop classes?

              A lot of D1 commits from this class. Interesting to note that only a handful of kids (circa 2-3) of the 29 D1's did not either play DAP or go to a prep school.

                what happened with Duff Thompson going to Michigan?

                  For the kids who went to Prep School, did they repeat a year or do a PG year?

                      I saw the article which inferred he was going. I see two websites showing as many as 12 players committed to Michigan next year, none of which are him. Did something change?

                        The obvious answer would be somebody broke
                        there promise.

                          I wouldn't think Chaka would be overly happy with how he was represented in this article.

                            Sounds pretty accurate to me.

                                I wouldn't think Chaka subscribes to a student newspaper at a Cambridge, Mass school that has an enrollment of about 1000 students.
