Do schools pull their gymnastic scholarship offers very often when a long time commitment does not develop as anticipated. This seems to be one of the pitfall of recruiting 14 year olds.



They do actually, or reduce the money amount, a verbal commitment is non binding. Until they sign the LOI, its verbal at this point. In Caitlin's case, she was one of the rising stars in her early elite career when she committed to LSU but injuries have plagued her along the way and has now been just competing as a level 10 gymnast.

Are gymnastic scholarships now like baseball where they can split the amounts and give differing sums to each gymnast.

Is the 12 total scholarships still in place?

What effect do you see the new recruiting rules having on the way schools recruit. Seems the rules now virtually eliminate contacts with recruits until their junior year. Do they just communicate with intermediaries like coaches? Seems softball is still getting the 8th grade commitments, though.

what are your insights on how things will evolve in gymnastics?

What has been the typical age or grade level that gymnastic coaches will begin to assess possible recruits?

How important are the college's summer camps in the evaluation process? are they like football or do the coaches put more stock in videos and in person evaluations at meets and in practice?
