College scholarships and one story of what can go wrong...

Families thinking they were receiving larger scholarships than what was presented when an offer is made. Coaching changes and how a players value can drop when new coaching comes in and they need to free up money for ladies from their former squad or, that they were recruiting as was most likely this scenario.
