[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]struggling a bit with DD as she is a runner with an offer of support from tippy top D3 but wants to see if ivy+ doors open after fall cross country. She has made tremendous improvement but won’t be evident and provide a recruitable lift until later in season, long past when these things are usually done.  The D3 school will want to wrap things up by mid September with offers of support, so timing may not work for us - it really is like game theory to a large extent[/quote]

I know a track kid (not CC) who didn’t get placed until mid spring. Track is very black and white as you know. It’s a gamble [/quote]

Lots of kids apply to top academic D1s without coach support and then later are able to walk on to the teams when they get in, but don’t they have their offers of coach support nailed down by early fall?[/quote]

This is less likely to happen now that roster limits are in place. The ncaa settlement has really changed up recruiting, so much advice is stale. Without the sport I can’t provide good advice (parent of 3 D1 athletes in different sports)[/quote]
