MOST dont go on to college or they do and wind up flunking/dropping out and coming back home to settle for what is available here. Football is IT. If your female and love sports and would like to progress in that area for college, well you better move or train yourself.

If you're looking for a good education, I wouldn't suggest it! Read less
