OS-
I agree, this is a great summation.
However, I would like to add 1 more item:

"The Financial Fit:

Coach: How much do I have to offer ? Can the parents handle the Cost of attendance ?

Player: Can my parents pay the difference after my grants ? Does the school location require added travel costs? "

What about adding on the Player side: Do I want to go to this school bad enough where I am willing to make up any difference in costs through student loans?

I am not trying to cry "poor mouth" here, but MY parents had very limited means. I was NOT a student-athlete. I went to undergrad and grad school and paid for over 80% of my education. I did it through Grad Assistantship, working and Student Loans.
