Here's the thing to be concerned with at the D2 level, many of the D2 teams will have teams with up to 60 players and field JV Teams which play other JV squads and area JC's in the region. Plus you have JC kids and D1 kids who transfer into the D2 schools which may add to the frustration of the larger than expected squad and having to wait your turn to play. Many times it is easier for a player to see "real" playing time all be it limited at a D1 as a frosh/soph while many kids at D2 have to wait their turn behind upper-classmen while on the JV squad and not even travel with the big team.. D1 schools have a limited amount of players on the squad and even freshmen will get some ab's or innings during midweek games plus the opportunity to play on better summer league teams where scouting takes place. Nothing wrong with playing with a good D2 just make sure you know what you may be getting yourself into.
