Exactly like publish or perish for academic assistant professors, if you are a coach of a funded program you have only two performance measures...win and keep your athletes/program out of trouble. Never before have there been commits this early, and if you trust that it is all rock solid, my best of luck to you. Read these threads and you'd think these kids have been handed four year deals and a commitment that can't be broken. If the coach at wherever offered a spot and some money, assume the spot and expect that money for the first year only. Rather than be upset on a notion of panic, give yourselves a small needed dose of something lacrosse parents need more of...a sense of reality.


Not only are you a worry monger, but you are also having a hard time reading...

I completely agree that there are no 4 year deal--Agreed.

The point was and continues to be that the early commits are receiving one year deals that coaches are not breaking. One year. After that year, if you are not performing or if they find someone better, you can lose. We agree.

We don't agree when you say college coaches are not honoring their early commit $. They are for the one year they were promised. THe coaches tell you this up front...
