<p>Hmm well I suppose this has gotten a little of topic. Thanks for some of the good replies though. To clarify, I am obviously not a draftable baseball player - not even one good enough to play at most colleges. However, I probably am good enough to make and start on the MIT team. The best reply I read made the comment that if the athlete is "qualified" enough, the coach may suggest to addmisions that he be considered for acceptance...or something like that. I doubt I am good enough for a coach to do that but who knows</p>
