Message: [QUOTE="pfister1, post: 4348989, member: 285"] No way to run three major sports without overlap. Football (Fall) Hoops (Winter) and Baseball or Lacrosse (Spring). College sports are year round in terms of workouts, practices and other team events. You have to be an EXCEPTIONAL player to join a team without having put in the work that your teammates did while you were off playing another sport and not expect to create some negative waves if you got playing time over guys that did put in all that work. If you’re Jim Brown joining the football team after having left to play Lacrosse in the spring you can probably get away with it. Most players don’t have that kind of exceptional talent and aren’t that much better than the teammates they’re joining late. And if you make the exception for Jim Brown, how do you turn around and tell Charlie Brown he can’t do it too, even if he’s just a blocking dummy on one of the teams. [/QUOTE]
