Replying to College football or skiing?

Alright i know newschoolers isnt the best place to get advice on serious subjects, but i thought it would be interesting to see what someone else's view on the dilemma is.

To start out with, I just moved to salt lake city from albuquerque, new mexico to attend the U of U. When i was in albuquerque i played football for UNM and somewhat enjoyed it. When i transfered to the U i talked to the coaches and ended up being invited to play for the utes. This was pretty cool because it gave me the opportunity to play for one of the best teams in the country. The first couple of weeks in utah were great, skiing 5 days a week and enjoying all the city had to offer. Then today i went in for the first day of winter training with the team. It was down right awful. It was the hardest workout ive ever been though and i had 6 coaches screaming at me for an hour and a half. I came out of the weight room literally hating life and it took me a full 30 minutes to change clothes. The players on the team were not the friendliest people, to say the least, and i could tell that they were not at the U to get an education, but to collect scholarship checks and look good for nfl scouts. to top it off i found out the schedule for the entire spring semester and it includes 6 workouts a week, 3 at 6am, that progressively get harder. The other 3 are at 2 and i have a class that gets out at 1:45 two miles from the football practice facility, which means showing up late and getting "punished" all because i want to pursue my degree. Then the worst part, no skiing allowed.

basically i want to see what an outsiders view on the situation is. is it really worth all the bullshit to play football or should i live the dream and ski 5 days a week? if feel like being a jackass just fuck off and dont hit the reply button. im really not in the mood for that type of stuff.
