[quote=Anonymous]I want to say not all sports are equal... Also, not all athletes are equal... Football and basketball are revenue-driven sports, meaning you can charge top dollar at the door and people will pay. So for these sports, although the top athletes do not have to be as smart as the average kid at the school, they are still smarter than most other athletic peers. For the non-revenue driven sport, those kids have to be smarter than the average athlete to attend, same can be said for the average footballer-- basketball is a different beast because there is not a lot of scholarship to distribute. From: Former HS track coach who helped multiple kids get recruited and current college track coach whose job is to recruit athletes. [/quote]
