So what does the school do in those cases. They have a girl commit in 9th grade - lets say to UNC as a 2017. Now she get there freshman year and doesnt play at all. Next year they have more superstar freshman coming in. There will likely be a starter or two in that freshman class. Lets say that 2017 doesnt see the field as a sophomore. Then what - does the school keep giving her a scholarship? She will likely not be a contributor in her junior year.


What planet are you from? This is new to you? The top programs (in every sport) bring in top talent every year. Do you think just because the player was recruited they would get playing time? Obviously another non athlete who has no idea what goes on at competitive programs. Nothing is guaranteed. Not every player who does not see significant playing time quits, some actually continue to work hard and fight for a spot. This is only a surprise to non athlete parents who think their daughter is special. Many players (in all sports) never see much playing time in college at competitive programs.
