The best way to avoid getting cut after fall ball or after the first year is make a good choice during recruiting. Getting an offer to your dream school is great. At least until you get there and discover you’re on the bubble every fall and spring until you’re cut. Every year the coaching staff is recruiting more players to make competition for playing time even more difficult.

When a player is told he will get every opportunity to make it as a walk on imagine how many show up on campus having been told the same thing. If you don’t get athletic money the coach has no skin in the game. If you don’t receive athletic money there better be a goood reason and everyone knows you’re better than most and will get playing time (maybe the family is wealthy).

When a player gets to college, after a handful of studs everyone else is on the same plane talent wise. Then mental toughness, work ethic and time management skills take over.
