I just don't know. But comments and articles make it sound like a BSU freshman will be choosing between $100ks at a P5 school or getting nothing at BSU. That's not the case.
I suspsect that freshman with P5 offers almost never choose BSU at anypoint in time. Freshman with better offers not going to BSU is no change. Now, they just hope to also get money while not going to BSU.
A player choosing between Nevada Reno and BSU is more realistic. How much money are those guys getting? If it is anything, getting nothing at BSU is meaningful. But I'm curious how much is really at stake for your BSU freshman.
