i know that some of u may not agree with me on this. but i believe that if you are not offered at least your living expenses with scholarships that it is time to move on from athletics. whether that be football, bball, or baseball. what some athletes dont understand is the time commitment that is required to play a college sport, its a job. its no longer an extra curricular. also the second that u graduate from high school, unless your god's gift to a sport from nd your not goin to play professionally, u have to prepare for your life in the future. the time commitment that is required negatively affects academics. your grades in college affect the type of job u may have. i have the belief that academics must come b4 athletics. COLLEGES HAVE INTRAMURALS FOR A REASON. i may be alone in saying this. but paying to play at college just doesnt make sense to me
If their shooting at you, you're doing something right
