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.


The short answer is yes, although an $ adjustment is very likely. ( that's why you pick a school she wants to go to even without lax) Coaches also like to play their upperclassman whenever possible, and its is mostly deserved, these kids have been with the program for 2, 3, or 4 years making practices and lifts etc..they should see the field, of course the coach will play the best kids in order to win when necessary.


Some confs have 4yr scholarships, so no $ adjustments.


And this is why the "full athletic ride" is BS 99.9% of the time. Coaches don't like to over commit their money and then when kids are deserving at the college level (not an 8th grade verbal) the coach will up their 2nd 3rd or 4th year monies. In college it doesn't matter what you did in HS you have to earn it scholarship or not
