The big lesson from basketball scholarships is that schollies there allowed for BETTER academically qualified recruits. Additionally, the Patriot League has a similar banding system to the Ivy League, meaning you can’t just cram the team with kids that are on the lower end of academic eligibility.
Personally I think kids quit for a lot of reasons, and I think that’s always happened whether we offer conventional scholarships or not.
