    Recruiting in 2 sports

    Yeah...I think I could have worded it a little better. I think the idea of wrestling in college is something that very recently has intrigued her as our HS program has alot of recruiters around all the time right now. I wrestled in college...her brother currently is.. she is not a college...

    That path started when the post was created and saying twitter spiraling down the toilet. The left is so upset over twitter this week. Getting my popcorn ready. This should be a fun read.

    spiraling down quickly? Because of Elon Musk purchase or something else? Do share because I just posted a question about Twitter recruiting as well. Not same question, but in general.

    I am talking about D1 D2 D3 wrestling for girls has way more scholarship money than softball...in terms of how competitive it is in the environment. Obviously, as non-revenue sports, they have probably very close in terms of funding $. I am also a bit more knowledgeable about NAIA. For my...

    First week of college practice

    I wonder how many parents posting in this thread were actually real college athletes..not intramural or Greek week athletes Just curious is all not asking for a number. Not meant as an insult to those that were not. It is not described as "fun" very often by those who were.

    First week of college practice

    softball coaches are bigger hard asses than even wrestling coaches at collegiate level...and for absolutely zero reason. Hoping DD doesn't pursue beyond HS.

    Harassing pitcher

    Watched a few Va Tech games at Regionals (on tv) and their fans were awfully mouthy. I kept wondering if the they had a dang mic up in the crowd because you could clearly hear them harassing the umps for calls... especially the illegal pitch calls. They were all over opposing team as well...

    Advice Needed - college freshmen - when to worry?

    Till they need those skills in the real world and have to learn them then. My kid handled the socialization piece..as well as athletics...and 3.98 GPA just fine. Sounds like a team culture issue to me. I would say it is not very common to kick that many freshman off a D1 team. But, hey...

    Advice Needed - college freshmen - when to worry?

    Socialization is an extremely important part of the college experience. You don't have to be doing keg stands on Thursday nights to get valuable socialization skills and interactions. Anyone telling kids to only focus on school and sports are not giving great advice...in MY opinion (3 already...

    Dilemma - "injured" player actually picking up with another team

    Lots of funny stuff stuff here. I find the whole guest playing stuff shady for the most part. It is absolutely different when you are short players and picking up players to be able to play with their coach's permission. Totally different when you have plenty of players to play and do it...
