[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the only D1 offer he would get would have athletic scholarship money included -- that's what the National Letter of Intent is. More info at nationalletter.org, including consequences of breaking the contract. [/quote]

Not true. Not every player on a D1 team is a scholarship athlete.[/quote]

Generally the term "offer" is reserved for athletes receiving a scholarship (the ones who sign on NLI day).[/quote]
No, formal scholarship offers with NLI are a subset of the commitments you can make as a recruit. Like PPs said, a D1 commitment for a an offer for a non-scholarship spot is the same as a D3 or Ivy commitment, and [b]it would be pretty crappy for OP’s kid to commit if he intends to apply to other schools[/b], because that screws over both the coach and the kids who would have loved to honor a commitment to play for that coach and team.

Maybe, but never forget that coaches are always looking out for #1 and drop (even ghost) recruits in a heartbeat when a better player comes along.[/quote]
Some coaches do this, but the majority do not, in my fairly extensive experience with a couple of sports.  [/quote]
