interesting, not exactly setting the bar high are they.
yes it is, idaho is a rebuilding program and needs scholarships, and you are limited to only 25 a year, this kid will never see the field
and it was a non bidding offer (not an already signed LOI)...... and the kid offered them to remove his offer no harm no foul and that he understood that they had to do what was best for the school...it would have never made the news and everyone would have understood
but according to him they said
‘you've been with us this whole time,'” Malek explained. “Idaho is not leaving your side.”
to put it in perspective, at houston we wanted to bring in a high school qb but we didnt have the schollies to do it.. scholarships are so tight we decided to push it til 2016 and could only offer prefered walkons to jc's...his brother petrino literally pulled an offer last minute from another 3star rb without notice just to find a way to save a scholly
they gave up a scholarship they could have used (and desperatly need if know how bad they are) to help build the program..instead they did what was right by the kid...
if you dont consider that noble .....something is wrong with you
