faripole,
Here is what is swimming in my head on a Saturday morning....warning a lifeguard is not on duty!
What is his/your gut feeling about the level of play relative to your son's skills? Is it doable? Is he over his head? With a lot of hard work, when could he compete for a job...soph year, junior year? Do they have a history of transfers that get injected into the program? Is the coaching staff new?
It is nice to know there is a possible academic scholarship option with this school. Would this be a school he would go to if baseball was not in play? If no, keep looking. If yes, consider it relative to other options.
Are there better academic/athletic options at any NCAA baseball level that are better balanced and give him a chance to compete sooner?
