Reply to "Seeking advice"

I sometimes wonder how many kids who dream of playing college ball have any idea what is the schedule in a day in the life of a college baseball player. That the schedule is so tight there isn’t time for eight hours of sleep. There are mid week road games with bus trips that arrive back on campus late. There are weekend series where the team bus arrives back on campus at 3am and the player needs to get a signature from the professor of his 8am class to prove he showed up. If he doesn’t keep his grades up none of this will matter. On the bus a bored teammate majoring in basket weaving will be pinging his ears from behind as he tries to study.

If a kid is on the fence he needs to understand what he’s getting into. Otherwise he will quickly fall off the fence to the no play side as soon as something doesn’t go his way.
