Francis, I get the feeling you’re already in “what if it doesn’t work out” mode before your son even gets to campus next fall. Once a decision is made the player and his support system has to be all in. College sports are too competitive just to get on the field to not be mentally all in. If, for some reason it doesn’t work out then sort through the options.
The best option, unless the player is a legit pro prospect is go where you would be ok if baseball it taken out of the mix. If baseball doesn’t work out another option is stay and be a regular student.
