The one thing that needs to be understood is that academics not talent is what will get these boys into college. A college player is a student athlete, thus they have to be good in the classroom or they will not be playing. now more and more college coaches weigh the academics against athletics in their desicions of who they will recruit and give scholarships to. Most of the time a college coach will take a coachable, gifted student that is a good athlete over a great athlete. For the simple fact that these boys arent going pro in one year and they have to stay eligible, for four years or the work the coach put in was wasted.
