Is it true that unless a player is getting athletic money at a D1 or D2 school, a NOLI is non-binding? I have a kid who is planning on playing at a D2 school and signed a NOLI. He's getting a lot of academic money, but no athletic money. If he was to change his mind, can he go to a different school without NCAA penalty since he's not getting athletic money?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostCorrect. Only NLI’s are binding. Most schools have what is called an ILI for non-athletic aid. Now while your kid could go elsewhere, it would generally be frowned upon and many schools would not touch a kid who broke a commitment at another school. What if the school decided to cut ties with the kid? Knife cuts both ways. Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should.

them. Players should do what is best for them academically and athletically. If there's an inkling something isn't right, listen to your gut.

Yes. So I am not sure what the original question is about? On national signing day did the kid just sign an academic aid form? And now he/she wants to go elsewhere? Why sign in the first place if waiting to hear from other schools? The academic aid money is not going to be given to another student if student A doesn’t sign on a specific date.

It is a legal doc
I get the photo op angle and don’t really have a problem with it as long as it’s not total BS
If you are playing at some D3 no issue with you getting your pic taken
