[quote=Anonymous]New poster here, Its for sure apples and oranges type of comparison. I do understand both sides however. The soccer parent being proud of their player playing at the college level regardless of if its scholarship or paid tuition. The basketball parent would be just as proud either way as well. The basketball player is more valuable to the school as its a revenue producing sport. Soccer is looked at by the school as more of advanced club or intramural sport. The top basketball players all go to college or a handful straight to yhe pro level. Soccer players many of the best youth players in the sport dont play in college because of no scholarships offered. They are simply priced out of the sport. I think thats one reason many European and South American countries scoff at US soccer. It is looked at as a sport of the well off rather than the sports for all like most of the world.[/quote]
