I guess no more than 30-50% of D1 programs are fully funded. Assuming your logic, if 1-2 players per class receive "full" scholarships, that leaves approx. 6 scholarships for the remaining 40+ roster.
That "feels" about right. Of course that is for the fully funded programs that use big numbers to grab good players. Ultimately would differ by program and funding level.
So in that scenario you may have 24 players on 25% and 16 players full pay (walk on etc)
there are essentially no full scholarships. I played with Dom Starsia at Brown and we are still friends. He will tell anybody in his 26 or so years as a head coach he has given 4 one year full rides...odds dictate your child will not be one of them. 12.6 scholarships to a d1 program and 50 kids. do the math and realize that only all americans get 50%, anything more is very rare. also rememeber athletic money is renewable every year, so if somebody plays better than your child the money you get can go down easier than up. academic money is for 4 years assuming grades stay intact.
