He's going to be fine. The only thing that I would suggest is that you continue to ensure that he gets adequate guidance from a strong player (at least 2300, such as Murray) that is also very into teaching. (Not a cut at Murray; I have no idea whether he's a good teacher or not.) I do know that John Curdo is good, and Jim Rizzitano has apparently done wonders with Ilya Guerevich (sp?). Good luck.
