[quote=Anonymous]College is very challenging and athletics are very time consuming.

Consume every bit of knowledge you can while you are there.

Most people cannot afford to take that much time away from the primary reason they are in college - to get a great education.

If you are deeply truly passionate about a sport no one will be able to stop you from playing it, but if your dedication to the sport is anything less than enormous but prudent with your time and concentrate entirely on your academics.

College is very difficult - 50% of those who enter fail to graduate with a Bachelors Degree or higher.  Don't risk your GPA or not  graduating  from college because you spent too many hours in the weight room during your freshman and sophomore years. Imagine the loss and waste one would feel if they played sports in college and that it caused them to never graduate. To have played college sports but to have failed to graduate with a BA  would be very humbling. To have played college ball but being unable to put on your resume that you have  BA would be very humbling.  To have played sports in college but being uncomfortable talking about it because you never graduated would be very humbling.

Go to college, get a great education, get a great job and live a wonderful life.[/quote]
