I believe most told me they usually sign about 45 players and expect to lose some through the draft and academic issues.
The #1 school my son was interested in would not make an offer until the dust settled. When it started to get late in the season they ran out of scholarship money and had oversigned LHP JUCOs. They offered hima walk on or to set him up in a JUCO so they could follow him. They were straight forward and I appreciated that. I didn't have a clue about this.
We fortunately had good alternatives and would have stayed out a year so my son could work if we had to. We were not in a hurry and had some great JUCOs as backups.
We were also surprised that we had to get accepted into the school prior to a written offer. We knew the scholarship amounts but had to apply and get accepted first.
