Reply to "Football and baseball"

My son payed both football and baseball up to his senior year.  He liked the break from baseball, enjoyed playing the game and really liked the energy of the "Friday Night" games.  Once January came around he was reenergized for the upcoming baseball season and his "arm" was ready to go.  2 sport athletes should play the sport that they enjoy and have fun with regardless of what a coach thinks.  

Having said that, however, during the recruiting process  it can be a problem when OV/UOV present themselves.  With baseball most of these visits take part in the fall and my son found himself missing some football practices and even one game due to a desired visit.  Coach was not happy but understood where my son's future was.  Eventually son committed to a D1 HA his Junior year of HS and "retired" from football his Senior year to assure there was less chance of getting hurt in football.

 

Good Luck!
