It’s not that they weren’t told, they just found it harder than what they expected.
I was a collegiate athlete (football) and I told them it was going to be hard, but they were just overwhelmed…I wouldnt consider them dumb.
They seemed to have turned the corner and are looking forward to the games this weekend. I’m hearing more about how practice went rather than how tired and sore they are.
I'm not talking about anyone here, it goes without saying.
People are telling families headed to college sports what it will be like. From experience. Some of these families think it won't happen to them. Or choose not to believe the facts. To me, that's dumb.
Happening a lot in the world these days.
