i don't quite get signing a letter of intent but not sending it to the school - especially  if not sending it to the school includes not notifying the school.  isn't it a contract that requires signing by both sides? the college agrees to pay for at least a year. the recruit agrees to play nowhere else for a year.

does notarizing your signature somehow make it a binding contract if the school hasn't signed or even been notified? 

how does it matter? in this case there are 5 schools holding a slot for a recruit. 4 of those schools can't use their slot on a back-up if haley has not notified them.
