Dear Recruit: Part I
Dear Recruit,
I’m writing this to you. The one who’s getting recruited. The one who actually wears the pads, makes the plays, and wins the games.
Your parents, coaches, friends, and fans will benefit from these articles should they read them. They’ll understand where you’re coming from and have insight for what you’re going through. They’ll even be able to counsel you as you take the next step.
But I’m not writing to them specifically. Every word will be directed at you, the ball player — a modern day gladiator.
This a letter from one who’s been there, to one who is there. If you’re open to listen, I can help you find your way.
