Madmax is right on. It totally depends on the sport and the coach.

White Chocolate, what sport and what division is your brother looking to play at?

If its D1 basketball, I can tell you that there are pretty few (proportionate to football or baseball or other sports) fraternity men that are also athletes. Not to say that it doesn't happen, but for instance, Pike has less than 15 D1 basketball players as compared to more than 30 football players.

This may not be the case for fraternities other than Pike, but in terms of NIC fraternities, I would say that its probably true.

I'd definitely have your brother ask the coaches about joining fraternities and see what his stance on it is. My guess is that most don't like it, but will put up with it as long as it doesn't effect their performance on the field/court, etc. or in the classroom.
