Nothing wrong with that. You may not play much but if you're having fun at a good school, who cares? Everyone will graduate and get a decent job.

If the coach is pushing a big percentage at a kid right away it tells the family that they are a priority prospect. If the coach is stalling or coming with a low ball offer it really means that coach sees their kid as more of a role player.

I assume if you tell them outright that you don't need the $$, they won't give it to you. But for real, if it's a top choice for your kid, do you make that part of your conversation?
