I called my son in last night and showed him this chart. I told him that it was great to have that dream but to hold that degree is priceless!!

I knew the percentage was minute from high school to pro.

What struck me about this chart was the attrition rate when making it through college. By their own count there's a little less than a 25% attrition rate to starting football in college and finishing out. In fact, pretty standard across the board with any sport.

In real figures, signing 25 per year, a school is only going to have 77 kids by their senior year.
