That's where you are under informed...been at the Recruiting BS 2 yrs now...NCAA ALLOWS up to 12 Scholarships...does NOT mean the school has or gives the Coach that money...ONLY kids you see on a full ride are the 70mph pitchers...Most of the scholarships that I know the #s on are in the 50% range...Know one kid getting a 25% athletic and 75% academic...and tell ya another thing ...In most cases the %'s pertain to either tuition or room and board...usually not both...Ex:...FL offers my 50% tuition...as non resident...R&B is on me...Non resident tuition at FL is $20K...resident is $5K...
Trust me when I say...MOST of those kids are not on an athletic full ride...
And honestly...most parents lie about what their kids got...

And exactly...whats the problem with Title 9?

Bill...Men are better athletes?...NO shucks....God made men that way...bigger, faster, stronger...Lets see you have a baby 9 months in your uterus...
Good athletes vs good Fastitch pitchers...?...Ask Barry Bonds...he refused to bat against Lisa Fernandez...after she struck out like 5 of his buddies...


You should read my next post. I never said they are on full ride ATHLETIC scholarships. I made it very clear that they can also qualify for academic scholarships which do not count against athletic schollies due to softball being an equivalency sport.

Oh, and I doubt Jordan Patterson is on scholarship. Her mother and father make a pretty good buck together, and I believe she gets half price tuition due to them working for the university (might be wrong about that, though...it used to be that way).
