Of course he's not actually getting an opportunity for a free education.

He's exchanging the promise of a LOT of hard and time consuming work for the chance to enroll for free at this institution. If the parents had thought through it at least as long as it took them to get the coaches phone number from the AAU coach they could have maybe realized this will not be the last chance the kid will have. And who knows...? maybe in 4 years the very last thing this kid will want to do is move from SoCal to Kentucky.

In short, it was a stupid, shortsighted decision to let the kid commit at this point.
