I tend to agree with you...I've been debating whether or not to try and start a team myself, but then as I read all these posts I realize that it may be a better idea to start working with a team rather than begin a new one. A team with only college mentors may not be a good idea because you're balancing what is almost two full time jobs. Starting a new team IS like a fulltime job (so is college)...even during build season it becomes veryyyyyy strenuous. But you guys know that already
