Reply to "The elusive full ride"

My kids both received 75%. But I was always very clear to people I was talking with about college baseball/softball with it was 25% athletic and 50% academic. 25% is very normal. My impression is players getting 50% or more are typically extremely talented and likely to be drafted in the top ten rounds. Sometimes, kids are receiving financial aid money and parents don’t want to talk about it. What people earn isn’t anyone else’s business.

My kids told me their teammates never talked about how college was being handled. It was rarely a conversation in the stands. It was happy news for the parents when a kid got more than last year.
