What about the student athletes who were hoping to get athletic scholarships to go to college? Recruiters will not be able to evaluate them unless they are picked up by the teams of the schools that they now attend.

How would you like it if your kid was the star QB of some high school in Texas only to be "replaced" by a walkon from New Orleans?
