It happens all the time. But you are right, it's up to the school to grant the release. The school also has the option to put stipulations in the release....for example: Texas A&M could decide to release Jordan from his LOI but stipulate that he cannot go to UK. Not saying that would happen....just using it as an example. If the school refuses to release a player, they can transfer but would have to sit out a year.

Do you happen to have a link to the rules of letting someone out of their LOI? It's not that I don't believe you about aTm being able to say he can't go to a specific school, but I've seen both sides of the story. Personally, I see it as either they let him out of his LOI or they don't.
