@bandera posted:I wonder how Covid 's impact on income will hurt next years scholarships. Do coaches spend it to keep returning players or use it to bring in freshmen or transfers? With less money coming in, budgets have to be trimmed. Reduce travel schedule expenses by playing closer. Cut sports with less donor impact. drop number of scholarships funded? Etc. Obviously nothing we can control or even predict because this is unprecedented.
Interesting point...my understanding is that scholarship money going to "Covid Seniors" does not count against a team's allotment, but that next year the total goes back down to 27? And to the point above, maybe some schools will fund fewer based on lower sports revenue overall?
