If you are a student-athlete at one of these schools, why are you still at the school? Do you think they value you as a student-athlete? If competing is important to you why stay somewhere that doesn’t value that experience for you?

Because it is D3. You pick a school for the school.

What % of D3 student-athletes do you actually think picked a school for the school (academics)? It’s probably less than 5%.

Some of us don't have mommy and daddy to pay for us to go to any school.
I went to a local D3 state school because it was what I could afford. They didn't have track, but I was grateful they had cross country (I improved my 5k over 2 mins from high school so i guess it worked out). Also most D3 runners know they aren't going to be running for a career so they choose academics over athletics.
Probably about 90%.

The only sensible rationale for posting something this incredibly stupid is either 1) you don't know any D3 schools or 2) you don't know how to divide.

UAA/NESCAC are probably the only conferences in D3 where someone is choosing a school for academics only. News flash, you geniuses make up a small % of D3. Even in the ‘CAC if someone gets into Middlebury, Amherst, and Tufts you honestly think just academics makes their decision? NO. Athletics has a role.
Now consider all the Midwest conferences in Ohio/Indiana/Illinois/Wisconsin/Iowa. All those schools are about the same academically. Ask a WIAC runner why they are at Lacrosse vs Stout, it’s probably because of the team.
Many D3 student-athletes chose their school so they could get a degree (you can still do that same degree at most any school) but still compete for 4 years (currently some can’t do that/haven’t been able to for a year).

Does it take a lot of work to be this actively wrong and misinformed, or does it just come naturally to you?
