A sizable portion of those 3000 kids headed to D1 schools will be either cut, phony redshirted, or looking to transfer all within 6 months of the start of their freshman year...try to stay within your boy's realistic ability..nothing wrong with being a big fish in a smaller pond if the academic fit is right.

50% of D1 players transfer. Only 18-20 of 35 players receive adequate playing time. Competition is fierce. Every year the program tries to recruit someone better. Everyone was first team all conference or more (up to all state) in high school.

Some make the mistake of picking the dream school as a non scholalship player instead of taking the best offer where they are loved. If a player receives one D1 offer and four D2/D3 offers what is he being told. Is one coach right and all the others wrong? But the kid wants to say he’s going D1 (for now).
