Rumor is baseball team will be losing a couple of their better freshman from this past season. New transfer rule allows players to transfer without sitting out a year, if they didn’t receive athletic aide. This could be a significant issue for the PL as there’s very little athletic money. Big blow to the team and can have a big long term impact.

A vast majority of college baseball programs aren’t fully funded!

keepplayingbaseball.org/college-baseball-scholarship-limits-and-rules-by-level-2019/I do not know whether one can mix merit and need-based aid in baseball. _____________________ Expenses in 2017-2018 for baseball for 20 schools in the PL and CAA, includes Fordham, Georgetown, Villanova, excludes USMA and USNA. HC spent the least, $458,000. (Total would exclude need-based aid to rostered players.) Bucknell spent $487,000. (Ditto on the parenthetical) Average expenses for the other 18 schools: about $900,000 (eyeballed estimate). This includes state universities where fin aid cost per scollie is often half of PL cost.

The answer, as always, is it depends. There are NCAA bylaws that are D1 and D2 specific about merit-based money for athletes (min GPA, SAT/ACT and/or class rank), and if those are met, the merit based money can be mixed with athletic money, but if either is given, the student-athlete is a "counter" (counts toward the number of scholarships permitted by the NCAA/Conference/School). The NCAA is not clear on this topic, but my understanding from conversations with many is need based aid does not make the SA a counter and may be able to be stacked, but each school looks at that differently too. I do know a couple of high academic DIIIs that credit any merit money toward their part of the need-based equation meaning unless your merit is greater than your demonstrated need, you're not getting more than the need-based expected family contribution would indicate. Where HC is on that question is a good question for the coach/AD.

Hasn't that always been the case?

That was my thought also.

If you got a release from the school you were leaving or you were moving down a division you didn't have to sit out a year. If the coach/AD of your old school didn't release you the one-year rule was in effect. My understanding is it only applied to scholarship athletes.

I am dismayed that HC is last of 20 in spending on baseball. Where is the pride in our National Championship heritage?
This fact alone increases my appreciation for the job the Head Coach has done.
