What about the requirement to present an "original" and as the 5th cout of appeal just found out, a fax copy at least when using the UCP 400 does not qualify as an original. Taking into account that banks rarely mail originals that LC might be useless. Or excluding the article from the UCP 600 that permits presentation of originals... If someone wants to play, LCs are the playing field you want to be on.

These coaches and schools are so lenient in their upholding of contracts as long as money changes hands as you pointed out. If the coach does not want to be there, they have leverage on the school from a "bad PR" stand point. In my book he breached the contract for sure.
