Well, consider this. Many of these early recruits are from affluent areas, or have reclassified at private schools - I understand not all - just using a wide brush here - maybe these parents have essentially demonstrated that at the college level, cost will not be an issue. So scholarship money is not the most prevalant reason nor should it be i understand, but a college coach having this conversation with someone from a very affluent area, and is able to afford the college without financial assistance of any kind, athletic, academic, financial aid - I have to think his bursar's office will be pleased that he has 3-4 kids on the team that are paying 95% of the full price tag... When a 2017 early commits from Amityville or Freeport then it gets interesting... Again, broad strokes, I am sure it is not the case with every case or situation... I don't live in one of the most affluent towns either, so I apologize Iam not putting down A'ville or F'port - just using examples
