I not saying that there isn't one, but I don't understand what the issue is?
The coach at UNC addressed this in the opening ceremony for Dallas International cup.
The coach that doesn't do it misses some of the best talent- those are the ones most likely to go in the 8th grade-right?
And either party can back out prior to actual commitment day their senior year. Is that not also right?
Seems that recruiting 8th graders is a pretty rare thing compared to all the girls who ultimately end up being recruited.
So I am not seeing what the issue is...
