This is a first:

"Your request to rescind this player's scholarship has been denied by your Athletic Director. He is concerned about adding to the number of open scholarships."

yup, they do that if you cut too many or would have too many openings.  Dont remember what the triggers are - used to know

Didn't know that.  Huh.

I think the magic number is at least two scholarship players...might be three.

I'm taking on a rebuild with 11 open slots. Looks like I have to keep this JR for 2 more seasons.

I cut three at NU last year and will probably cut another this year.  But those three cut brought me to six open, not any more - I think # open might have something to do with it.  Cutting two when you've already got 6 open might be harder than cutting four when you've got 7 more staying.

I've cut down to four schollies when taking over a new team (started with eight, if I'm not mistaken).  Never tried going any lower than that.

The AD will not let you cut below 3.  See this: http://www.whatifsports.com/forums/Posts.aspx?TopicID=452277.
