that's a big gray area. If a player hasn't progressed to the point where he doesn't look like he will ever be a factor on the field for the team, is that proof that he is 'not putting forth the effort'?


It's up to the coaches. Academic scholarships can be lost. Athletic scholarships should be based on performance, not necessarily on the field, in the coach's perspective.

use to be that if a coaching staff miss-evaluated a high school player and offered him a scholarship he still got his full 4 year ride. Not the players fault that he didn't develop fully into the player the coaches had thought he would be or that he was just mis-evaluated to start with.

However, f that. It's about winning and I wouldn't have it any other way. Mis-evaluations happen and it's best for all involved for the player to move on.
