A while back, City College of San Francisco's Gabe Bealer announced he was accepting a scholarship offer from Utah. Now since the Utes are members of the Pac-12, Bealer's choice is looking really smart:.
From Gordon Monson:
...And the [Pac-12] league presidents "reaffirmed" their commitment for athletes’ stipends to cover the full costs of attendance...
All their scholarships will be guaranteed for four years. They cannot be canceled or reduced as long as the athletes remain in good standing. That means it will be more problematic for a coach to run off players. Coaches still control an athlete’s playing time, which is a significant hammer, but if that athlete is settled in at the university and wants to remain, his education will be paid for, according to the terms of the original scholarship. Pulling that scholarship for unfounded reasons is not an option...
...If an athlete in good standing leaves a university, having completed half the requirements for a degree, he or she can return to the school later and receive financial aid to complete that degree.
And if an athlete is injured during his or her college career, medical expenses will be covered not only at the time of the injury, but also for up to four years after the student leaves school...
