Yes and no. The classic jock has been replaced by the preppy type in 6 different social clubs so he can get a good playing job that his tiger mom approves of. There was even a book about that phenomenon and the changes in education from the 80s onwards. That said, lots of former jocks fit the stereotype of getting fat and following the rules blindly. Normies gotta normie. So, yes and no. The old school dudes who played for fun and then went on with their lives don't really exist, at least not in large numbers.
