Reply to "Are scholarships re-done each year?"

CoachB25Honorary "Old TImer"

A few good rules to know:

1. Most, but not all, people that say that their son was given a "full-ride" are stretching the truth.
2. What a player receives from year to year is NOT GUARANTEED!
3. Universities really appreciate the opportunity to recruit a real student in the student-athlete. It provides for them so much more opportunities to get a player while reserving some of their money for other players.
4. Coaches at the Collegiate level do thier best to "tell the truth." However, in Collegiate sports in general, there is no real "truth."
5. Scholarship offers from one institution to another are not the same. This is due to the nature of additional supporting scholarships and the requirements to keep those scholarship. (Did I ever learn about this the hard way.) It can happen where the scholarship's requirements change without the Head Coach knowing.
