[Husker] Huskers Pull Penn Linebacker Scholarship Offer

[Omar Sharieff]

If recruits have the option/ability to decommit at the last second (and we have had MORE than our share in the past few years, particularly from "blue chippers"), thereby leaving football programs in the lurch, then schools can rescind scholarship offers in a similar vein. Nothing is official until the letters are signed anyways.It sounds like Nebraska no longer wanted the kid and they did their best to find him another school. The bar for talent is set high now, and programs should reserve the right to re-examine all offers anytime they want.if Bodtman thinks he's so good, then there are plenty of schools in the Mid-Atlantic region he can try walking-on to. But the fact that he isn't getting any other scholarship offers should provide some indication of his "market value"...The Nebraska football program has moved on without him, so he should move on too. Best of luck to you young man.OmarGBR> Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2009 14:06:54 -0700> From: dkarre at comcast.net> CC: husker at tssi.com> Subject: Re: [Husker] Huskers Pull Penn Linebacker Scholarship Offer> > Mike Nolan wrote:>> I don't think contract law is the key issue, the question is when >> do NCAA guidelines permit schools to send out binding letters of intent,>> and can they retract those letters once they've been sent?  > > No doubt, but I think the answer is the same: the LOI isn't binding on > anyone until it's signed.
