@Husker, totally agree about Alans service. We focus more on population reports and lines with him, but he got the analytical part down like nobody else.
LOL Jon, i even had a guy writing me once that his girlfriends cat is not feeling well and he has to take a break from playing and study only. No joke, in our last years camp i showed the email convo (student stayed anonymous, of course).
First, i thought I was getting trolled, but the guy meant it
. Having that said, while he had some mental leaks, he did manage to make a few k.
I view it as part of the job of a coach to take full responsibility, even if the student is an idiot. Sure, there are some limits, but you can threaten to send them Dildos or gay leather pants (if they live with gf/parents).
