I played seven years of professional baseball between the St. Louis Cardinals and the San Diego Padres, spent three years at the D1 level at NC State University, and now we've helped over 200 high school baseball players play in college yes 200 which is obviously really really cool but if you guys never talk about money if you guys never talk about scholarship percentages that is a huge conversation that needs to happen if your son is serious about playing college baseball because the stats show it i think i i did this math a while ago on one of my videos before but i think it was around like 180 000 for public in-state tuition right 180 000 yes that's us dollars that's public in-state now if we're talking about public out i think it was like 234 this was a google search that i did a couple months back so these numbers could be a little bit off but we have 180 we have 234 and then um private was i think like 290 and this is for um four years, by the way, four years in college, right?
