Starting from the existing semiclassical studies on hydrogenoid atoms, we propose a similar intuitive exercise for the three-body quark systems corresponding to protons and neutrons. In the frame of this toy model we try to explain both the stabilities of proton and neutron with respect to the nuclear interaction, and the spectrum of nucleonic resonances with J=1/2. Our choice is motivated also by a good agreement obtained for the up and down quark rest masses report. Taking into account the deterministic chaotic behavior of many-body systems, the discussed exercise could be understood as an interesting particular case of a quantum three-body problem which admits a semiclassical treatment.
