As I mentioned before, scholarships are renewable year to year. The NLI doesn't extended itself past the first year. There should be no verbage in the NLI regarding sophmore-senior year as far as I know. I am not familiar with 4 year guaranteed scholarships, which are handed out pretty sparingly.
All the NLI does is guarantee a "place" for you on the roster next year. The rest is up to your son to give the reason for the coach not to let you go.

I think all Power 5 schools have to offer four-year NLIs. Here's Rick's post on the topic from a couple of years ago: http://informedathlete.com/the...caa-di-scholarships/

Wasn't sure on that as a guarantee for power 5, but if that is the case, someone either misunderstood or was misled and figured out how to get around the requirement.

I think he has no choice but to go ahead and sign and let the chips fall. Good post for folks to understand how important it is to ask questions after committing.
