D1 Tennis, the Deadline for NLI for 2021 class to sign is 1 Aug. The deadline to notify current student athletes whether their college scholarships will be reduced or renewed was 1 Jul. So those in the Portal now probably are at the point of no return to their previous school. That gives little time to sign for those still looking. This includes those looking for that extra year. The USTA should be publishing information for the 2022 class, who as of TODAY can be fully engaged in the recruiting process. Many of the 2022 kids are providing verbal commitments and for those that have not been in contact with their list of schools they are behind.<br />Also, their is no change to NCAA GAP Rule's. That comment is referenced in the article and the NCAA has not amend the rule that only allows 6 months Gap from the Athletes Graduation date. So Class of 2021 still has to enroll by Jan 2022 or stop completing to avoid losing a year of eligibility. My Opinion theses issues are so complex and changing the USTA should just provide links to the NCAA rather than publish a Q&A that has little substance.SeminoleGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09348591540345947462noreply@blogger.com
