When did D3 schools start having student athletes sign LOIs?
It’s really not a letter of intent like D1 and D2 since they can’t give athletic grants. It’s just a way of announcing that this student athlete is going to play for that D3 school. A well funded D3 school can really offer better “deals” than most D1 and D2 schools for sports other than football and basketball.
There is no LOI at D3. A player must pay a deposit to that school to be comitted.
We do this as a celebration for our students. We all know the rules and can you please just let them have their moment and be proud of themselves. Thanks so much.
where did Kaplan go? I know he had a offer to GTCC…along with some others.
