Reply to "Preferred Walk-On"

Welcome to the HSBBW.

scdigger brings up a good point, if the school is in south carolina and achieved certain academic standards, that would include his state earned money, he's not really helping your son with anything, is he?

Preffered walk on means they maybe are going to give your son some consideration to fill a roster spot.

I actually would find it very insulting if my player, I don't care what his talent level, if they had been "watching" for 2 years and not offered anything.

If this is for 2011, then you have no choice, if for 2012, you have no obligation to them for a commitment, say will consider it and start looking harder for a program that really wants your son.

I'm with swampboy, sounds peculiar.

If that coach leaves or is fired, there is nothing to protect your son for a spot (there is nothing anyway), that's why the NLI is as significant as it is, even for just a year.

BTW,what school offers walk ons a year in advance?
