Thanks all who have replied.

If my son doesn’t meet the academic requirement to transfer from a JUCO to a D1 then he is in a world of hurt and baseball is the least of his worries. Bad grades will cost him his full ride tuition scholarship from the Alabama GI bill.

Sounds like transferring from a D2 to a D1 is a lot harder than transferring from a D1 to D2.

Bama, be aware... when Rick says "as long as the athlete satisfies the academic requirements for a JUCO transfer.", I'm pretty sure he is referring more to cumulative credits that apply to a student's major..  not so much about poor grades.  Transfer requirements vary by school and create a great deal of confusion.  In our experience, we have found that far too many JC counselors are not well versed enough on this.  It is a legitimate concern when weighing the option of going the JC route if one cares about not having to tag on an extra year or two of college to complete required coursework toward degree.
