[quote=Anonymous]"or unhappiness with the coach." I think this is the biggest reason sports get dropped in college. Many travel sports and/or HS coaches become huge parts of kid's lives. When their college coach can't live up to that ideal, it isn't hard to give up a sliver of a scholarship, the dregs of playing time or team proscribed schedule. The next biggest reason is that it's fun to be the travel team star and not so much fun to be the first one off the bench. Few freshmen expect to play a lot, but when new freshmen play more than you are as a (redshirted) sophomore, it can be time to move on. Lots of academic kids face the same issue. They go from being #1 in a class of 500 to a solid B student at a state flagship.[/quote]
