just out of curiosity, how'd everything work out for your kid, what were his options, and what did he chose?

Thanks for asking. Coming out of high school he passed on a couple of full ride offers (academic and baseball money) at some smaller schools and was going to play at UC San Diego when LSU called and invited him to walk on, advising they thought they would have a couple of spots open. LSU was his dream school (he had previously attended camp at LSU and had been sending video letting the coaches know he was willing to walk on) and he jumped at the opportunity. After try outs, he pitched in a number of scrimmages in the fall of 2011, giving up zero runs, but in the end was told there was no spot for him that year. The coaches suggested he attend LSU Eunice and they would keep an eye on him. Instead he attended JC in So Cal and later got picked up by Villanova.

That's him in the sig pic pitching for Villanova. He was one of their top relievers and is on scholarship.
