indeed, which is not very friendly overall.

Is it worth mentioning that there is nothing binding in the LOI for college and thus not a good idea. In real life recruiters keep in contact with said player for a lock down phase. If you have ever been submitted by a recruiting company to one of their clients (another organization) then you have the same idea of what an LOI is for college football. Ultimately, all an LOI should do is remind the agent that the player has sent an LOI for x team, are you sure you want to accept a contract to team y.


This. I like this idea, but the agent shouldn't be locked in:

LOIs resemble written contracts, but are usually not binding on the parties in their entirety. Many LOIs, however, contain provisions that are binding, such as non-disclosure agreements, a covenant to negotiate in good faith, or a "stand-still" or "no-shop" provision promising exclusive rights to negotiate.



Either one of 2 things needs to happen with this.

1. The agent can get opt out past day 32 with the owners permission
or
2. The LOI does not bind the player to the team
