yes largely to do with your feelings.


So it's a feeling of mine that a scholarship player is more important than a non scholarship player?
It's a feeling of mine that Baker played more than Dean despite him playing worse?
It's a feeling of mine that Dean could shoot? I guess I just made up all the tape I watched and scouting websites I scoured.
I was dreaming when Dean killed Miss St. in the SECT but then was benched for the majority of the 2nd half??

I never said this. I said a bunch of times now that I was not speaking of finances. It's almost like you don't read what I post and skim over it looking for sentences to pick out and buzzwords to backup your preconceived notion.

No reply or response to the ample evidence I provided and expanded upon for you. Never change man.

coach wants to win and play the best guys on his roster regardless of the particulars of the finances of their educations. if he plays player X over player Y its because he thinks that will help him win.


So McMahon is an idiot then? He genuinely thought Baker provided more for the team? That's funny considering a bunch of rantards could see Dean was better... but yet in critical situations Baker always played over him..

Of course I don't believe McMahon is dumb. Ignore the direct quotes from press conferences that heavily imply that what I'm saying is correct. You do you man. Enjoy your day.

a scholarship is explicitly a financial issue. there have been times when a star player gave up a scholarship to help the team and still were the star player. Jarvis varnado at Ms state did this.

scholarships are significantly less important now in the NIL era. walk on trace young drives a G wagon from NIL. walk-ons can make far more money than tuition costs. walk-ons the restaurant pays their tuition anyways. its not an issue the way you claim.

for the final time, your theory is just made up. they were down a scholarship so dean didn't get one. he was paid with NIL. it had zero to do with playing time. any correlation between scholarships and playing time is made up by you. good day sir.
