D3 coaches do not offer money either athletic or academic.
They do not. However, as stated above, at many schools they have tremendous leverage. My friends son got over 60% merit at the highest academic NESCAC level. He was a top level recruit that chose a higher academic path. BTW he never would have come close to being accepted at the school without lax. Kid was high C band low B band at best academically. It should be noted that his monetary award was not need based. Family has the funds. This is what people don't understand about D3, there is a lot of money out there. It many cases, more than D1.
