1. i don't consider myself an objector just lacking understanding...maybe i am an objector by default?
2. I believe i read in this thread that it is very difficult to get on the field as a freshman. what is the difference if you can't get on the field for a year or 2 at 4 yr school or if you can't get on for a year at 2yr school?
3. IMO I wouldn't be advising my kid to find a situation that is high turnover, coaching changes and very fluid. it is one thing to end up there due to lack of options but go looking for it seems odd to me.
With respects to high turnover, included is the following:
1 - How many transfer out?
2 - MLB Draft or sign professional contract
3 - Transfer (4 yr or 2yr)
4 - Reasons Unknown
Yes the number will be higher than somebody at a 4yr college, but you can't compare the 2 business models.
Note, cost of attendance will be the #1 influence towards making a decision.
As for head coaching changes, it depends on the division and region
Note, covid has allow everybody to reassess their career choices
