[quote=Anonymous]My freshman roommate was crew and quickly quit. My husband’s roommate at a different college was a basketball player who quit after his freshman year season because he started smoking pot and got lazy. Sporty kids tend to have their schedules controlled by their parents, so once they get a taste of freedom, the early morning practices and weekends away on road trips seem pointless. And with nobody to boss them around, they do what they want: Get a boyfriend or girlfriend, sleep in, and party. And it’s likely there were more fans at their high school events than their college events. You’re also typically going to be one of the worst on the team as a college freshman, while a few months ago they were likely the best on their high school team. That alone strips all the fun from the sport.[/quote]
