[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thr admission advantage is pretty much the best it gets. D1 athletes have the equivalent of a full time job— early morning wake ups, travel that requires missing classes, a constant battle for playing time, limited access to certain majors and classes because coaches deem them too demanding, etc. .. I have three family members who played d1 sports and personally don’t think it’s worth the price, and I say this as a parent with two kids who play club sports.[/quote] It is a job and lots of students need to work in college be it for getting athletic money or some.other job. That said....club youth sports are full of affluent athletes that don't need the job so that is more confusing. Some use it to get into academic elite schools but others just want to play college soccer. A mistake IMO but I have my own to worry about so whatever floats their boat I guess.[/quote]
