    Good coaches/teams have organizations behind them that buy talent and don’t bounce checks.

    Well. Pay for the parts is obviously the first step. It won’t fly with only half the parts. And don’t get aftermarket crap either as we don’t want to have engine failure every other day.

    The guy is exactly right but not really encouraging. If you can’t recruit the best parts, you can’t build the best plane. You need the best parts money can buy and we’ve been trying to go the economy route for years. There nothing wrong with not flying first class, but don’t blame the coach for the quality of your plane.

    Multi year yr ships were approved by the conference in 2012
    Athletic scholarship - Wikipedia
    This is the only article written in 2014 that tallied offers.
    Schools can give out 4-year athletic scholarships, but many don't
    Florida is said to have offered 88 multi yr ships across all sports in the 2013-2014 session. There is no written record that Florida offered four yr ships. They could have been any combination of 1,2,3 or 4.

    There is not any information that any school(other than the pac-12) is giving out 4 yr ships let alone multiyear scholarships after 2014.
    Every school has the option to do it many don't.

    Schools live off the words that as long as you are in good standing the 1 yr scholarship will be renewed each year.

    I stand by my thoughts that still doesn't mean the player has to accept the renewable offer and shouldn't be legally bound to accept it. They should be able to seek out a new scholarship at the end of each scholarship term.
    They also shouldn't be force to sit out a year if they accept a new scholarship after they have honored the terms of the previous one from a former school. They should be able to do this as many times as they can without penalty.

    “If” they were offered four and accepted four, both parties should honor it. If it one year renewable as surely almost all are, it should be optional for both parties.

    Wouldn't that have been already agreed to when we scheduled this series? Are we trying to get more than agreed to?

    He must have been an officer. They're permitted to be able to count reasonably well.
