This weekend my DD came home for the first time she started her school, it was great having our family together (oldest came home from Med school).
While discussing all kinds of subject she talked about what happened to S occer team when new coach came in this year. First thing he did was revoke all scholarships from players he didn't recruit until they proved their worth. I guess this affected many players and wondered to myself if this is the norm when there is a coach change? Also, I see many players giving their verbal to school while they are freshman and sophomore and wonder are these kids picking their school because they love particular school or because they want to play softball? Would they have made same choice if no scholarship was offered?
For the record, from my DD's team player with Full ride has quit and rumor of another leaving. Distance did come into play. Also, practices and commitment was/is greater then they are willing to give. Mentally exhausting if not prepared for long season. DD loaded up her first semester with two labs (biology and chemistry) so she can lighten her spring semester ( only taking chemistry).
