I think you can make the team.  I believe if you have the heart and desire to live out a dream, nobody's going to take it away from if you really give it all you've got.   It is important to be around people who can assist you to reach your goals or train with you.  It's important that you believe in yourself.  Stay positive and it can happen.  \n\nOn a Christian perspective, it is all up to God if He wants you to play for your college.  God has great intentions for us all.  I suggest praying earnestly about it asking God to help you make the right decision that is ultimately His decision.  Perhaps you can be a source of blessing to others through your faith in Him.  \nHe knows the sacrifices we make and He rewards us when we have faith.

He will not be going anywhere if he is convicted of the crimes he committed against his own teammate.  What school would want a kid with that type of history?

It's to give the weaker teams in the league a chance to improve by getting some of the best young players coming out of the colleges.\n\nThis will help to create some balance in the league and thus help improve attendence in the various cities because no one wants to see their team finishing at or near the bottom of the league every season.

I have never heard of this. What college are you attending, what state? Sounds like it might be a scam....but I would need more information.\n\nYou may also want to contact your school to make sure you have all your facts straight, because this just does not sound right.

Assuming that you meet all of their requirements for admission (i.e. a BA and some kind of Master's plus the required GPA), why not go ahead and apply instead of trying to outguess them.  Or at least go talk to a real live person instead of relying on what their catalog and website say.    \n\nYou are anticipating the worst when you haven't really tried yet.  You are reading between the lines and coming to conclusions that may not be warranted.  Go find out what the real story is.

they're usually club-sports not necessarily funded by the school. the main football team is the competitive one that gets all the money and intercollegiate will play other clubs but probably have to raise a lot of their own money and athletes may not be recognized as easily for getting out of classes, etc.

Knucklehead-armchair sports fans can say he is misunderstood all they like. The fact is though, when he does recruiting now he is handicapped by his own reputation. The kids have a choice of what school they go to, most of them probably don't want to play for a guy who (fairly or unfairly) has a reputation as a maniac. That being said, I think he is a decent man who has some issues with his temper (typical for someone of his generation) and the media does single him out. The fact he makes sure his players hit the books speaks for itself.

Realize that school is more important than baseball. Explain this to the coach. If you're any good, he'll make some exceptions for you.

It is most likely some kind of honor your son is being nominated for by one of his professors. I would imagine its probably for something in his major, and it is most likely a pretty nice accomplishment. Id congradulate him.

Academics are your first priority in school. Like it or not. Even at the college level, I had to keep a 3.0 minimum grade point average. If you can't dedicate yourself to your studies, then what is there to make the coaches think that you're going to dedicate yourself to your sport? Remember too that people who are on school teams are representing that school in all aspects, not just for the sport.

Study hard, make good grades.  Volunteering in your community is a HUGE advantage.  Colleges are looking for outstanding people, not just good students.

i'd say go for something new.  it sounds like you might already have your mind made up about trying the co-ed route.  you can still stay friends or catch games of your old team and start a whole new thing w/the new co-ed team.  go for it girl!  you can do anything!
