From the FAQ:

Yes, a player's scholarship can be rescinded anytime after the conclusion of the job change period and prior to signings starting during the following recruiting period.

Keep in mind, that rescinding a scholarship of a player that you signed for no fault of the player may make recruiting for your school more difficult in the future as no kid will want to play at a program which isn't loyal to it's players. You do not receive any additional recruiting money when you rescind a scholarship. Also, cutting a player could cause other players to leave as well.

Slight clarification to the FAQ: You don't get the recruiting money for those open slots until a full season later unless you fill them in the meantime.

So, if you cut a player at the end of Season 52, you get no money for the open slot in the ensuing recruiting cycle.  But if that slot is still open in the NEXT cycle, you get the appropriate budget dollars.

In addition, I haven't heard of anyone losing a player because they cut someone, and the loyalty hit hasn't hurt me that much when I cut players, though I don't tend to do it very often.

On very rare occasions, a coach will start a thread about him cutting a player and another player leaving also.  I've only seen it happen once personally (and not to my team, another team in my conference).  In fact, the more I think about it, I think I only remember hearing about that happening three or four times since I've been playing HD.  Very rare, but possible.
