This is actually a valid concern. I can't believe people are still throwing out the "it doesn't teach fundamentals and ruins the game" line.

quote:I was just about to post this. Take note of how many kids playing on Nike AAU teams wind up signing with Nike colleges. (I realize most colleges probably wear Nike but allegedly a lot of top end AAU teams/programs are tied in with Nike and steer kids to certain colleges). The head coach is a dirty bastard but is paid by Nike, another way colleges dont have a money trail to recruits. Nike (and others) are way more powerful than people realize. This could be exaggerated of course, just regurgitating some things people have said over the years.
The worst part about the AAU coaches, is that the shoe companies have aligned with some, so that gave them even more power to corrupt.
