It’s not about who the bursars office gets the money from. That’s not at all what I mean by “the scholarship situation


that's exactly what scholarships are. the have to do with how the tuition is paid. you can also pay with NIL.

in fact walk-ons has been paying tuition for walk on players.

again, your theory here imagines that McMahon will purposely play worse players and potentially lose games based on which players have to fill out which financial forms during enrollment.

if the best player on the team was from a rich family and refused a scholarship, he would still play.

No shite…. but a scholarship is also more than that, and I’ve listed ample reasons as to why that is. If you chose to ignore them that it on you, and if you genuinely think that a scholarship is just a financial means to an end then you are out of touch with college sports.

I’m aware of this. That’s why I said it’s not for financial reasons. Yet these players are still walk ons, and there are still players on scholarship.

Not imagining it. I saw Baker play over Dean with my own two eyes. You yourself said Baker was worse than Dean and Dean provided more.
