This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Heard Muffet speak last week said 2 biggest issues now are by dfw
parents wanting to be recruited and kids having no experience with obstacles so they leave as soon as an obstacle appears. It would fit in the idea presented here.
The parents wanting to be recruited piece was a big issue for her as she wants to get to know the students and see if they are a fit, but too often parents want to be the ones who are first in line.
She was also not a fan of the transfer portal and the fact that it allows students to skip talking to their coaches and trying to work things out.
