brosenyc posted:My son was recruited by a high academic D3, did an overnight visit, put on a show in an intra squad game with current team members, got on the coaches list for ED. Did not get in. We then had to scramble to find another school -- it was already December. Another D3, not as exclusive, the coach jumped at the opportunity that fell into his lap, and my son was admitted immediately. Rolling admissions. He's now doing Fall practices, adjusting to a very demanding schedule, has a shot at starting in the Spring. It's too early to say it all worked out for the better, but at least it worked out.
Wow, that really stinks! Did you have any indication from the coach beforehand that ED was not a lock, or explanation afterwards? I would think that if this happened with any frequency word would get around and people would know not to trust that program. Heck, they might tend not to trust any program.
I hope it does work out for the best.
