Very interesting and well thought out. The part about a limited academic track is true. Something would have to give between baseball and college. It seems to make a lot of sense if you can make the numbers work. I am just a little cloudy on how the education part would be fully funded after baseball? Also, is it the policy of the school that your son was admitted to hold his spot indefinitely? I know some of this may have been discussed in other posts in the past, but I'd like you to further explain your thinking.
