What does recruiting do, functionally, for parents?
Been thinking a lot about this question. Most of the time, the parents I encounter don’t care if their kid goes to Alabama or not. What they do get very excited about is having something like a sport that gets their kid excited and interested and invested in their own college process vs. mom/dad hammering them to figure out where they want to go to school. Am I wrong here? My kids are small, college is a ways off, but, I can imagine, if my son loved football and it was something that got him to have better habits in school, do well in class, and got him invested in his future somewhat, that would be more than worth the effort of getting to practice/money and so on on my end, regardless of where he ended up at school. Thoughts?

I think that is definitely true. Also, if it helps differentiate your child to give them an option at a school they might otherwise not get into that is a goal for many parents as well.
