"Exposure" is a Dirty Word!

The word exposure is thrown around to convince players they need to be seen by the "right people" (coaches and scouts) to get anywhere worth going.  This video gets you to thinks critically about that idea.  You are going in front of experts and to make the best impression your skills need to be up to a pretty high standard for you to be able to stand out.  In order to make the right impact focus more on developing the skills necessary to stand out than to chase the coaches around to get them to see you when they wouldn't be interested anyways.  It's a wasted opportunity if you don't show the right stuff they are looking for.
