They are on scholarship even though they haven't signed their LOI yet. If they should change their mind, they come under NCAA transfer rules.
1. Their eligibility clock has already started and they now have 5 years to play 4. 2. If they change their mind, they can transfer, but they will have to sit out at least one year which will count against their eligibility time. ----- Original Message ----- From: Oliver Barry To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2009 2:02 PM Subject: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Today's Gatornews from Miami Herald and Palm Beach Post I know you can't sign until signing day. They are under scholarship when they enter the university. I don't know what happens if they change their minds. Oliver Barry, CRS, GRI Real Estate Broker Halo Realty, LLC 700 E.

When a student starts class early (January), are they allowed to sign their LOI early? If not, are they on scholarship before National Signing Day? If not, could they change their mind and sign with another university for the fall? Jo Goodman's article got me thinking about this (see below).
