Sandlotson has been told that his best chance is to get into a school and try and walk on. He hasn't seriously been looked at by any of the schools he is interested in attending and has been accepted at(5 local U's). All five of the schools would be a good match for him outside of baseball. They are lower level Div 1 schools. At their camps, he's been rated as a "3" which they describe as "average college skill" but none are seriously recruiting him. He's having a great Senior year so far with three saves under his belt already. With the limited number of roster spots, how likely is it that there will even be walk on spots? How does one determine which school is likely to have walk on spots? If he hasn't been approached as a "recruited walkon" (not even sure what that is) should he even bother?
