If HC Admissions were counseling her in her academic program, then one reasonable inference is that she did have a good chance to gain admission. If there were no chance I'd hope they would say so and not build expectations unnnecessarily. I agree that we don't know the situation with grades but as a legacy of a gifted athlete and a gifted athlete herself, offering her consideration befitting that status would not have been out of line. I agree that the parents have some responsibility to know the rules but duty is proportional to expertise and wouldn't those who wanted her to play at HC be held to a higher standard, to know the rules and advise her?

I think you missed the thing about the NCAA rules on JC transfers to D-I versus D-II schools....
BeatBC explained it well.
Had the kid successfully graduated/completed the MANDATORY 2 YEARS at JC for admission to HC under NCAA rules, it sounds like HC was open to her acceptance. That seems like a fair proposal to me.
