Mike,
My boy did it!! He committed to Division 1 baseball at FLORIDA GULF COAST UNIVERSITY!! You helped make that happen. You should feel equally proud that your dedication to the game and the athletes you help paid off. It’s hard to find the words to express my sincerest gratitude for your help, Your guidance, expertise and of course…knowledge of the game of baseball that made the recruiting process so much easier.
When we first were introduced I had read only a little about your service at Florida Diamond and I really was not sure how the process of recruiting worked and if it was even necessary to have someone help. In sports there is always a worry that it’s just another “money grab” or can I do this on our own. What started as a business relationship turned into a friendship. You told us early on it was a slow process and you set the expectation…which was very important and very true. Now, 18 months later…I can honestly say, Mike…my friend, you are no “money grab”. You put your knowledge and relationships to work immediately. You told us to trust the process and we did. You told us when the time would be right to show Marky off to the college world and when it was right…and you did! You recommended the right school to fit Marky’s abilities…and they listened. You made the contact with the right coaches… and they saw it our son. You are the man!! My family cannot thank you enough!
Please feel free to share our story with anyone with the same hesitations. If they ever want to just pick up the phone and call us as someone that has been in their shoes, feel free to give them my telephone number. I would be happy to talk them through the process as well.
Thank you again and go FGCU Eagles! #WingsUp
