Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it more common for baseball players to get a partial scholarship than a full one?

I'm in a discussion with someone about this and he says that almost all the players are on a full scholarship. I didn't agree with him,

More than likely none of them... You have 11.7 to give out to 27 players.

I saw that Davidson had less than 3 scholarships for their baseball team. That means most of those kids are only getting a few hundred bucks discount at the checkout line. Now, the school probably makes sure their financial aid packet gets priority but still..

NCAA rules only allow for a max of 11.7 scholarships for baseball. That's it. Your friend is completely wrong. It's unlikely that any of them have a full scholarship.

College baseball gets the shaft for sure when it comes to scholarships.

11.7 scholarships...what a-hole came up with that number? At least round it to the next number.

None... baseball doesn't give full scholarships. Been like that forever b/c they refuse to allow them to have more.
Most of those guys prolly have academic or some other types of aid. I know when I played my academic scholarship paid for the rest of school and baseball paid for I think maybe books, a little tuition and a meal plan. Oh and don't let me forget! They bent over backwards and waived out of state tuition!

Coaches like guys who can qualify for academic scholarships... allows them to give more money to other players. In my case, better ones
