Reply to "Sleep?"

It is incredible what today's college student athletes go through to play baseball.  Sleep was a MAJOR concern of mine when my son decided he wanted to pursue engineering and play college baseball at any level.  His eventual path was tolerable for him, and a major reason he selected a high academic D1 with less practices, less travel, and less games that played a competitive schedule.  It was a great fit for him.

Sleep was so underrated was my son's conclusion after playing D1 baseball and studying engineering for 4 years.   Everytime we saw him or talked to him on the phone he was tired, but never complained.   He had zero free time, none.  My collegiate athletic experience 35+ years ago was vastly different.  I played D2 tennis and studied business.   I had all kinds of free time for shenanigans, studying,  and I slept very well.   It is vastly different today.
