I wonder what happened there? Must have been something with admissions, that's my guess. -
Could also be $$$. We all know there's not much $$ in men's soccer. PC sticker price is about $56K so if you're not getting much off then instate tuition starts looking very appealing.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
Or, many other reasons like concerns about PT, soccer program/coach, girlfriend, location, size of school, intended major. Let's not always assume a kid changes his/her commitment because of academics. It comes across as a diss of intelligenceComment

PC does not offer freshmen men's soccer players athletic money. They offer a roster spot and the potential to earn a scholarship for sophomore year.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

If you don't have the grades to get much merit money or don't qualify for FA, $56,000 is a lot to pay for a possibility. Is that a common practice?Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
If UMass wanted my kid I'd be strongly encouraging that route vs PC. In the end it's about the piece of paper and hopefully not graduating with a ton of debt. Soccer is all well and good and if you can have a solid college career that's great. But there's a bigger picture to considerComment

That's taking a big chance. No commitment from PC and all the commitment is on the recruit. Bad deal.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

They have some international players. I would think they would have to wave some $$ at them right away. Maybe doing that empties the cupboard for the local kids.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Not sure I'd want that for my kid unless I could afford full boat for all four years (which I can't lol). What happens year two when the student is settled, made friends, etc. but they receive nothing and can't afford three more years? Maybe they only want students who can pay (and many foreign students can).Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

just went on umass website and looks like they are returning most kids and have great incoming class. providence has an all american senior, not much else. no brainerComment

Providence has an excellent incoming class, too. Check it out on Top Drawer.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

top drawer seems like a great website, tough to figure out but will figure it out. both pc and umass good programs. can't go wrongComment

Umass offers little to no athletic money either... Especially for freshman.Comment

Unless the local kid is MS, who you would have easily predcited would have the impact he has had. DI is a good player, but not that caliber. All you need to do is look at a few other non-MS local guys around the same talent level as DI who went to PC and never saw the field to know that going to UMass which is more affordable, better PT chances, and aguably as good or better a school is a no-brainer.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
