OK - let's see if I understand the "clarification."
A kid who signed a NLI and is now attending college and receives a university grant which is non-academic (based on financial need) is a "counter" up to the amount of his grant, as long as it doesn't exceed 100% of his total tuition when combined with his baseball money.
Does that player then have the same "security" from being cut as a player who receives the same amount of money but all in baseball money?
I seem to recall some language on the NLI which states that you can take the NLI and the baseball money but not both if you get a need based grant which exceeds the amount of the scholarship.
Or am I comparing apples and oranges?
