What AI Is Not Allowed To Decide

- Whether a player should join, leave, or stay with a team or program.
- Whether a coach, school, league, or program will respond a certain way.
- Medical, legal, mental health, financial, academic, eligibility, or recruiting-agent questions.

The family remains responsible for the final decision.
