Message: [QUOTE="CuseOnly, post: 1216957, member: 2804"] Scholarships are currently on a year to year basis, if a kid get a career ending concussion in his freshman season, he is allowed to stay on scholarship for 4 years? Not sure this is true. Secondly, I wasn't speaking to the scholarship counting towards the scholarship limits of the team. I was speaking to the expense to the school and how it would be received by the academic side of the house. So if you guarantee 4 year scholarships and 3 kids each year for 4 years have a career ending injury, you are carrying those 12 scholarships with no participation. Lot of wasted loot there especially for a Private schools. Keep in mind they are going to increase the length and coverage of health insurance for athletes as well. Another big expense there especially for a sport like football and the potential for injuries lasting a lifetime. [/QUOTE]
