This is really a tough one. 48 summer games? I hope they were not every night. As a former coach myself, school comes first. I feel more honor out of having an Acedemic All American then having an All American. My suggestion is that the kid find another activity to take his time during basketball season such as conditioning with the track or football team. Run track in the spring. Or play golf, tennis or whatever. If the basketball coach is going to be that demanding, find a sport that isn't. He is right, you are only young once. Enjoy it. Don't make sports work.
