But it seems like the incentives are more aligned in the club scene. Club coaches want to get their kids committed. Yes, win tournaments too - but it's different in HS. Most HS coaches have no idea of the recruiting scene and may never even talk to a club or college coach.
This is really an issue for sophomores. If they are good, their HS coach rides them - especially if in the conference or playoff hunt. Then those kids show up in June with velo down and/or nagging injuries.
Argument could be made that it's better for college prospects to not play HS.
