[quote=Anonymous]It's like a courting process.

Coach likes kid

Kid likes coach and school

The coach requests your grades and does the pre-read with admissions.

If the pre-read is good, then the negotiations begin, talks between kid and coach, HS coach and college coach and parents and college coach.

If a deal is struck and everyone involved is happy...you can verbally commit.

The verbal commitment means nothing until the day you sign your letter of intent.

The signed letter of intent is now a binding legal contract enforced by the NCAA.

By signing the contract the school is guaranteeing admission to the school for your freshman year as well as the agreed upon amount of athletic/academic scholarship money's for that year.

You the athlete are guaranteeing that you are committing to attend that school your freshman year, agreeing to the scholarship amount listed on the LOI and that you will no longer actively seek recruitment elsewhere.

Prior to signing that LOI....anything can happen.

You can renig after you sign in order to attend another school, but you will be required to forfeit one year of eligibility.
