and some schools give a lot of money to 3 or 4 studs per year.The coaches have different philosophies! There are opportunities for big scholorships and smaller ones. You only need to worry about what is right for your child. [/quote]

Doubt it. Why would they? Three or four studs and with no $ for any more studs, then how are they securing other good players? I am not at all saying the funds are split evenly, they are not, but I am pretty sure no program is going to spend their lump of change on just a few girls. [/quote]
Why would they? To get the best kids! It is simple! 3 kids @ 75% = 2.25 scholorships x 4 (incoming classes) = 9 scholorships. Then take the other 3 scholorships and give 15%- 25% per kid = approximately 15 more kids. That gives you 24 kids on Athletic scholorship alone and you still get 3 studs per year. The rest of the roster are walk ons or kids who gained admissions through the athletic department. [/quote]And your school just got beat by N.U. or Maryland because your a Y.J. flunky. With your thinking you will not get past Florida. No school is going by your theory because seniors want more money simply because they put in there time. For every girl you put into the pool Mc Donogh puts in one , so does Bryn Mawr, St Paul, Vero Beach, John Jay, West Genesee, Lakeland- Pannas, Severna Park, Notre Dame Prep. I could go on for days, all these girls want and deserve the same money as a Yellow Jacket, so don't go crazy, The truth is there are thousands of very talented girls and only 92 D-1 teams, thats only 2275 slots, if your daughter wants to play that level and demands 75% as a freshman, I'll bet she will be past over for an equally talented girl that will except 25% and a team will get 2 other girls just as good for the same amount of money. I think you need to wake up.

Another misinformed person. Look at rosters of different colleges- you will notice some schools are heavy with LI kids some have none. No one has ever said that YJ are the only ones that are good enough to get good athletic scholarships. I would not send my kid to the school that offers 25% and costs 50,000 - so I would keep looking and see where she best fits in and have a good education at an affordable price. You siund very aggressive and angry. Good luck with your daughter and her recruiting process! [/quote]I sound angry on a written blog???? I will not tell you what to do with your daughter so I'll just say good luck, with you as an advisor she's going to need it
