[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree the school experience itself matters above all else. But the sport also matters. As a scholarship athlete a student will spend countless hours with the athletic program. It will be the shaping force in their lives. One could argue D1 sports shouldn’t be this way but that doesn’t change reality. The poster did not indicate which sport is at hand. For example if it is baseball, Wake presents far differently than BC. The weather alone is a huge factor. If an athlete has improved and is comfortable with indoor practices and batting cages, maybe BC is a fit. Really need to understand each program. And the athlete’s goals. [/quote] One other thing to consider is what happens if your athlete decides to stop playing the sport in college? Will you be able to afford the college without the athletic money? [/quote] OP says it's D3 so there is no academic money, it's academic merit so it won't go away if the sport stops. [/quote]
