Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
Major Leaguer to D1 Dad: David Riske's Journey of Success

So I've been on both sides, parent and a coach in high school. So I'm kind of in the middle of all of it. So I've always tended to want my kids to go to a better team or where there's better players, even elite players, because I think if my kids are not elite, I think they could get better.

I was always against going to a high school where they're terrible and then you being the best player on the team. Yeah, because you don't get any better. I don't think you can get better that way. But so many people play summer ball, and summer ball is very important because that's when you get seen by all these college coaches.
