Or just wanting to live a "normal" life. College sports is a grind. It is not for everyone. I wish more people understood this.I've seen apparently talented players prioritize their social life over everything else, show up grossly out of shape, or even try to conceal a serious medical/mental problem.
There's a reason why so many players don't play out their eligibility, or even make it through the first year. It often has nothing to do with how good a player they were in HS.
