[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are student athletes now getting into D3 schools based on sports? I was a passively recruited D1 athlete and was admitted to an Ivy, presumably based in part on my athletic ability (this was 35 years ago). [/quote] You can get into D3 schools mostly on sports? PP again -- in other words, if you are anticipated to be a decent athlete at a D3 school, my assumption is that you may be great at the high school level but are not amazing. Not sure that's really true anymore, but the point is I would assume you aren't "good enough" to play at a D1 school. [/quote] Ha. Hell no. Most of the schools that offer D1 $ on my kids sports are terrible academically, little crap places you never heard of. Kids that are smart will choose the highly academic D3 over a crappy D1, especially because virtually nobody goes to the pros after college in mens soccer. And it’s $70k salary for a year or 2 in mediocre play.[/quote]
