Parental assessment of the kid in general is HUGE.
What I mean by this is...Is this child school/college material?
Of course as a parent you would hope every kid will be education saavy.
My personal experience was go to college...but I know several good high school athletes that their parents need to understand they are not college material and would be better served going pro out of high school.
In these economic times...I would take the scholarship if all things considered were equal...coaching, education, etc.
