The Difference Between Levels Of College Basketball (D1,D2,D3,NAIA)

[@stevevanwagener7097]

Really good content. My son just completed his freshman season at a D3 school and absolutely loved it. He initially didn't want to consider anything but D1 but after watching the teams that were recruiting him play he realized it's still very good basketball. We picked him up to bring him back home for the summer and he said something that made me very happy. He said "I'm glad that D1 offer never came."

[@A350Airways]

Why would he be happy not to have received a D1 offer?

[@stevevanwagener7097]

@A350Airways because the highest offer is not always the best fit. He received enough money in academic scholarships to make it affordable and absolutely loves his team. And another advantage of lower levels is it's less of a job. At the end of the day, he's there to get an education. Go look at D1 rosters and their majors and then compare them to D3 rosters. It's much tougher to be a student athlete at the D1 level.

You upload videos that are exactly what every basketball player needs

[@kirknagy6253]

You should do a video on D-2 and lower schools with better facilities than many D-1 schools just to prove to this kids it out there.

[@davidmcquaid7862]

This is a video that should be mandatory for all kids to watch, excellent video. I was a D1 player with 25+ offers and after my injury transferred to a top D2 and I’ll tell you that the D2 team and players would easily beat all or most of the D1 low-mid level teams and compete with mid majors all day; but of course they wouldn’t dare play them because of the headline risk

[@JLENDSS]

Damn whats your name

[@cteix1]

I don’t comment on videos much, but this was great! All high school level kids, and even college kids, should watch this to put things into perspective. Not everyone is playing D1, and not everyone is going to be a pro, but the experience at some of these other schools can be just as incredible! Great job, keep it up!

[@arnaudfg]

This is really some interesting and helpful content🔥 I wish I knew this channel before

[@razor2tact]

i appreciate your videos so much bro, i watch all of them keep it up

[@henry566]

What about the nba what’s the skill difference like how good do you gotta be ?

[@BrianThomasII]

Coming soon!

[@splash_basketball]

The NBA is basically to college what college is to high school

[@danielisrael7]

I never played high school basketball but rn Im considering playing d3 ball alongside another sport. I really only hoop as a hobby for the most part but still thinking about playing at that level competitively.

[@daveschmidt5713]

As a fan of a NAIA team we regularly see transfers from mid-range D1 programs who are not good enough to earn more that 5 minutes of playing time. Talent and teamwork are the foundation for success in the NAIA.

[@user-sg8kq7ii3y]

Most youngins don't know that perhaps the greatest upset in college sports history occurred in 1982 when an unknown NAIA basketball team, Chaminade, defeated D1 Virginia, which was the nation's #1 team, and featured Ralph Sampson. It was the upset for the ages. Chaminade went on to beat several other D1 teams in subsequent years.

[@Kungi112]

if u have seen the tv show last chance u basketball u know that even at the juco level there are elite players, the team for the first season of the show had like 8 guys go d1

[@andrewsharpe3934]

Dang no mention for the juco dawgs.

[@BrianThomasII]

Juco might get it’s own separate video!

[@MusicPhrase]

Where's the love for JUCO here lol? We had 3 guys on my basketball team go D1 and a couple on the football team go to the NFL.

[@Bobbarker23455]

I'm sorry but I Go to a lot of D3 and D1 mid major and UConn high major games. Sure some all American D3 kids can sit bench maybe play a lil at smaller D1 schools. But there really is no comparison, take a team like Fairfield university, not great but on a good day they will beat any top D3 team by 20 points.

[@montralbarnes3181]

Great video

[@A350Airways]

Does the skill gap portion of this video also hold for the girls' basketball game?

[@hooplifetv7482]

[@schnauzebucket8205]

[@user-tv2ub6hx6p]

[@plc97pokelordchampion37]

Can I try out for NAIA ? I'm 25 fresh out of prison and drug rehab.

[@NotSoOriginal06]

What would you say that you need to be able to do to be a successful PG in college? Also IK it's a dumb question but how do you gain stars, do you have to be ranked or is it just somebody sitting on their couch being like "this dudes a 4 star athlete"

[@Villeboyj3]

Yeah the higher ur ranking the more starts u will have

[@highlightking0]

Go to basketball camps around your state. Big universities have camps every year and Nike host camps also for exposure

[@GuruRam77678]

Hey coach if someone decides to go Juco from naia jv that’s good right , I’m just making sure I made the right decision I played naia jv but I didn’t think I was going to get d1,d2,d3 so I went Juco what do u think , it’s hard right from Naia jv to d2,d3,d1 ncaa varsity
