You may have heard about the recruiting debacle that took place in Northern Nevada less than a week ago. A Senior offensive lineman Kevin Hart wanted to play division I college football. Probably more than he wanted to play he wanted others to think he could play D-I. So, he held a press conference with his family, friends and the school band. He announced he would go to Cal, electing them over Oregon. His bubble burst when someone from those schools said, "who's Kevin Hart?" Neither school had heard of him. He fabricated the whole story. I can only imagine how it started, but I see how it ended. Also, what was he thinking every time he told this lie? How much turmoil was in the pit of his stomach every day.
I'm glad I have reasonable expectations set by myself and my family. I don't know where this idea came from, but I would be surprised if it was all his idea.
I pray that I never push a loved one or friend to a behavior such as this.
