Really, I don't know what she is thinking. We all stood there and told her how brutal recruitment is and that UGA is one of the toughest. She knows plenty of moms who, last fall, were sharing stories about how rough and stressful recruitment was for their girls at SEC schools. Her attitude is like, yes, yes, I know that -- but it will be okay because she has good connections in four of the houses."
Another reason I was so shocked is that DD is not one of these high school queen bees who has had everything handed to her. She's worked hard for things and has had her share of disappointments. This mom knows firsthand that things just don't always pan out -- but boy, there sure appears to be a big blind spot about recruitment.
