I wonder how many athletes this affects. How many seniors are there on the various spring teams - maybe 0? And of those, how many will come back for a full year of school just to play a sport in the spring? I'm guessing a fair amount may already have jobs lined up, or may be going to grad school somewhere else.
I guess the only effect it would have from the school's standpoint would be on campus housing. A couple more students in a class would't be a real hardship and there is no increased cost to the school other than food unless they had to find more housing. It's not like they'd have to hire more professors or staff.

It may seem like it should be just a simple matter of moving funds from one department to another, but unfortunately it’s not quite that simple. Not saying it can’t be done, but there are going to be several bookkeeping steps that need to be made. This is probably less complex for a private school like X, but the public universities have additional rules and laws to deal with, as they are publicly owned and operated. And yes, there are the additional real costs involved in housing, food, travel, insurance, etc. that come about as rosters are enlarged, that need to be accounted for. It may not be a huge number of people that are involved, as most spring sports already have pretty small numbers of allowed scholarships. Still, it is something that will need to be worked out, and I’m confident that it will be.
