Agreed. I shouldn't have said initial counters because that is confusing and the SEC rule has nothing to do with that. The new NCAA rule is that all schools can sign a maximum of 28 players to LOIs but only 25 of those can actually be admitted, ie, 3 are set up for academic (and other) casualties. In addition, if 20 of your 28 don't qualify, you could then proceed to sign 20 more early enrollees.

The SEC rule is much more stringent and you are only allowed to sign 25 players to LOIs per year (Feb + the following EEs). Thus sign an LOI and you count towards that. No takebacks. You get no breaks or extra EE spots for non-qualifiers.

ETA - in both cases, you are allowed a maximum of 25 initial counters

The NCAA originally lowered it to 28 a few years ago, but the new rule is 25 as of this year.
