[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]D3 sports are an admissions and $$$$ hustle. I know two completely average runners at an Ivy League school who are only on the roster because their parents are billionaires.[/quote] So much wrong with this post, hard to cover. But for one thing, Ivy League runners are D1.[/quote] And why do you think athletics had anything to do with their admissions? Most likely is was the parent's financial contribution and they are simply a walk on to the team. [/quote] Agree. My DC was recruited for running at D3 schools. Contacted the coach at an Ivy and was told to get in first and then he could walk on. In other words, DC wasn't good enough to warrant an admissions chit, but could be on the team (his times were better than many on the team). [/quote]
