How does this really work?

For this illustration, lets not bring in academic variables such as "other scholarships" and specific State programs, nor the quality of the education, baseball program, or the incoming recruits talent, as well as the roster talent. Assume all are equal.

I understand the 11.7 allotment. What happens when it is applied using an in-state student versus an out-of-state student?

Example:

ACC school has an in-state cost of $15000. The out-of-state cost is $30,000.

Question #1: If a kid was offered a 20% scholarship, which of the 2 costs above get reduced?

Question #2: Is the pool of funds alloted to the coach 11.7 times the in-state cost?

Question #3: If an out-of-state recruit got a "full-ride" of $30,000, doesn't that deplete the fund for the coach 2:1 ?

I suppose the confusion rests with using 11.7 versus real dollars.

Again, all things equal, what would drive a coach to recruit out-of-state, and what would make any need-based families even consider a kid leaving home?
