This differs from institution to institution, but generally speaking the school finds them other ways to get them money. This is a lot easier to accomplish at a large public university like Colorado, where there is no shortage of budgets to pull from. It's worth noting that the type of player you are describing is made fully aware that no scholarship is guaranteed when they sign their letter of intent, and they know full well that the scenario you are describing, while not common, is always a possibility. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. In my own experiences, the first thing they'll look at is if any actual academic (as opposed to athletic) options exist. Having good grades does pay off in such situations.

Grades help, relationships with professors in any of the institutes within a university can be equally beneficial as those entities tend to have funds on hand for student assistantships and other programs to provide. There's a lot to make anything happen. Reality is at a huge state institution there is no shortage of bureaucrats to find wiggle room for everything, especially money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTJet Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 And so it continues. Some of these classic programs are about to be in shock at least for this year. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/35227005/colorado-deion-sanders-land-no-8-rb-2023-class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuicidalSince98 Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 College football will die a slow death the more it becomes a semi pro league and students feel more and more disconnected from the teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I think I heard Sanders has hired Mike Zimmer to be his DC that would be a pretty good hire. As for the recruits, until Colorado gets some respectable results the big boys won't be too worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRONX DUDE Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 It's great that Deion has proven his worth an excellent college coach. I didn't think that was possible. Good luck to you PRIME TIME!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
