[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have never seen this but I assume it’s b/c they are counting on soccer paying for college — that’s high stakes. [/quote]

And idiotic.

They’d be better off and have more chances with an academic scholarship.[/quote]

LOL no

[quote]According to author Mark Kantrowitz, who is publisher of FastWeb and FinAid, less than 20,000 students a year receive a completely free ride to college.
Among full-time college students enrolled at four-year colleges, just .3% received enough grants and scholarships to cover the full cost of college.

It’s hard to get in to and pay for college now days. There are just so many talented kids and so few slots even if you are paying. That said I think some people think sports are a ticket to college. It’s not. You see the same behavior and craziness at competitive pre-K, elementary, middle school and high schools. It’s just not sports.[/quote]
