Wonder if that was poorly worded attempt to say something like “she didn’t realize that her scholarship wouldn’t start until the beginning of the fall semester” ? But that would be really flimsy. Wouldn’t the coach know and be able to explain that wasn’t correct, before she she signed an apartment lease in Iowa City beginning in June? You have to remember that this is a statement made to try to preserve future job opportunities, where the issuer is confident no one else involved will comment or make clarifications.

Translation:
He wanted a particular SA to attend/transfer in and ~advanced the funds~ as a little carrot dangling in front of her, knowing that an additional scholarship for her was not available that year.
SA kept the 💰, as far as we know.
Where did these funds come from? 🤔

He could clearly afford it using his salary or savings IMO.

Otherwise, coaches would be "paying the rent" for all sorts of recruits, regardless of scholarship limits and the like.

In reading some of this mini-drama, it always amazes me that ANYONE would believe an iota of a self-serving PR statement from someone who was proven to have committed a violation..plus, fully intended to get away with it! I mean: ambulance chasers; Jerry Springer fans; WWE loonies; et cetera might be so gullible.

I was replying to the individual who seemed to indicate there was another funding source (or what has often been called a slush fund).

Hypothetical: Player on the team is scheduled to graduate in the Summer, but for what ever reason doesn't. Screwed up in a required class, changed major, whatever. So she graduates in the Fall, but, Bond has already scheduled that scholarship for sometime else in the Fall. That kid shows up, no money to pay for the apartment.

Then you explain to the kid you messed up and she won’t be able to be with the team for the summer months. I guess that type of hit to the ego isn’t acceptable to some.

We don't know the actual circumstances, we assume that the player had the wherewithal to pay fir the apartment in her own. She may be a foreign player. If she transferred in, she was living precariously because he of the tab of the old school and must get connected seamlessly to Iowa. That three month gap might be a major problem financially. So it might not be a matter of ego.

If her eligibility is used up (I think that’s what you’re implying), she’d no longer be a counter over the summer and this wouldn’t be an issue.

I thought the schollies were earmarked for a year, so if she was finishing her senior year, it would still count.

If the scholarship was not renewed, then the player would not have a scholarship. Many schools will give a kid in that situation a scholarship from the athletic department and put them to work in the office so it (the scholarship) does not count against the team. Scholarships are not linked to the athlete's "senior" year and then carry over to the extra semester.

Scholarships are not linked to the athlete's "senior" year and then carry over to the extra semester. Scholarships have been updated to be guaranteed for multiple years, so long as the SA is in good standing with the school and team. Ie, can’t cut the scholly for athletic performance reasons. I think that started in 2016. Also, I know SA do get something over the summer. Might depend if they’re enrolled in summer school, but maybe not.
