Going Pro – What Are Your Chances of Turning Pro?
I made these graphs from data on the NCAA web site (see the url at the end of this post) in response to an email I received from another counselor this morning. It’s no surprise that so many young people, especially young men, think professional sports will be their ticket to prosperity. Too frequently, those with the strongest belief in their ability to beat the odds are those least willing to work hard in the classroom. I hope you find this useful.
