Well, if you are a basketball player or not, the fact is that the majority of students in the entire world are average. That is in fact why it is called average. That doesn't mean they are bad students, that only means they are normal, average, everyday people like you and I. Of course you always have exceptions to every rule, granted that some player are terrible in school, some are also exceptional students. I don't think that's any different from the rest of the student body.

Maybe because they are interested in one over the other. I got good grades in school but certain subjects i wouldnt care about, like history. i would go to sleep all semester and wouldnt care about getting a C. Yet in the same semester i got an A in AP Calculus. Different strokes for different folks. Why not ask, why arent nerds athletic?

Are you serious. There are a lot of basketball players that have degrees in engineering, degrees in law, and a lot of them have business degrees. I don't know who you know that is doing bad in school but good in ball but your question doesn't go for all student athletes.

This is for all athletes, if spent as much time at school work as they did at sports they would have better grades.

my guess is that all the kids may be making you feel rushed or something.
also known as adrenilan rush, your sight becomes better and you might get a boost of strength.
if that is so, you might be shooting for the hoop not recognizing that you have a sudden boost of strength.

Because of the competitiveness of sports and they are to busy worrying about the pressure of the fans, coaches, teammates, scouts, and parents than they are worried about their schoolwork.

I'm guessing that you are a sixteen year old eighth grader.
