Re: UML Recruiting Thread, 2014 and beyond
I don't have a problem with getting people late as someone above said (too lazy to find the post). If you look at some of the kids that play they are physically mature at an early age. Lil les was playing with kids who were shaving in 6th grade. He didn't need to shave until Jr yr. Some of these kids mature late. If you are one of those you might not be recruitable until you are on an even playing field physically. Lil got out of hockey for many reasons but part of it was fueled by the fact his physical size and strength were lagging far behind the peers he played with. He wasn't bad but when you play D the 170lb kid can run you over no matter how much skill you have if you are 90lbs it is time to give up. Even if you are big mature muscles are different
