Really need some help here. We are looking at a couple schools and academics offered and need to know required commitments to baseball so as to decide on courses of study. Need fall semester workout requirements for D1 verse D2 and in season january thru championships.
There is a recent thread where someone asked about the day in the life of a baseball player. Several people responded.
Baseball in college is pretty much the same regardless of the level when it comes to practice
Why not touch base with the coaches at the school your son is looking and see what they have to say/

D1
20 hours of practice per week, 6 days per week.
(going from memory here, which can be dangerous)
Off Season - 4 hours of team conditioning per week, 2 hours of coach instruction in groups no greater than 4 players, per week.
Someone will have no problem correcting me if I've erred!

Ryno,
I sent you info that I beleive that max hours allowed by NCAA is 20 hours a week. I also suggested that you speak to someone at the school. I took the time to look this up for you as best as I could using a google search. You need to take some responsibility and find this out on your own or your son needs to make the calls.
Regardless of D1 or D2 know that any program is a huge commitment, and it's not set in stone how much time an individual player puts in on his own time.
In season takes a lot more of your time than fall. Besides games and travel time, coaches can call practice, then there's workout time.
I also suggested that your son not decide upon a major at this time, he can do that after his first year after he settles in and realizes commitments.

In most schools you can have two years to declare your major
