As the season goes on, he'll fall somewhere into the pecking order, and he will have to decide for himself how he feels about that and what he wants to do about it. If he wants to do something about it, I can help him. If not, I'll just drive him to and from practices and meets, stay cool, stay in the background, let him be a kid on his own terms.
