The Harsh Reality of Being a College Athlete (by a College Athlete)

Being a College athlete is what many young athletes dream of. But there are many unspoken facts about being a college athlete that no one talks about. In this video, I'll be explaining the harsh reality of playing sports at a collegiate level. 1. Only 2% of high school students make it to college athletics and only 1% get a scholarship of any kind. 2. Being a college athlete is both very time-consuming and extremely taxing. This lack of time and energy throughout the day is the main factor for many athletes' burn-out in their sports and underperforming academically. 3. 98% of College athletes work a regular job after college, however, many of them are underequipped to do so because of their neglect towards academics in school. Furthermore, many athletes experience an identity crisis as what was the main part of their life for so long is suddenly gone.
