At my school, a decent amount of student athletes tend to rush either fraternities or sororities. In the majority of cases I have seen at my school, the student athlete eventually drops the sport after a year or so due to the heavy time commitments. A lot of these kids who drop the Varsity sport join the club team which requires less of a time commitment, still with the fun or playing. From my view, it looks like they enjoy Greek life in college more then a Varsity sport... but then again, I am not a Varsity college athlete and I'm sure it also depends from school to school.
It's all in your priorities though. You only have so much time on your hands, whether you choose to spend it playing a Varsity sport or holding some type of role in Greek life, it's up to you.
