So the number jumped from earlier in the season from 3 to 7. Congratulations to these young men on their fine college careers!
Yeah. D1 is a grind. Especially if you're not getting any minutes.
I bet the number still playing D3 is way higher. School, social life and soccer. Not a bad mix for those not interested in MLS.

Yes it is but these numbers are consistent with numbers overall for D1 sports. The poster who does this analysis usually follows up with D3 information but as I recall it isn't that much better. So many things can happen - injuries, lack of PT (so they drop out on their own), maturation (realizing the next chapter of life is upon them soon), burn out....D3 may be "easier" but it isn't "easy."

OP here. I just did an analysis of D3 2015 players on that thread. Have a look.
