Safe to say that Brock earned his from last year. No doubt they will reward that effort and keep him on scholarship. 

Also, post above didn't mention academic scholarships. Though its much more prevalent in baseball, you'll see a couple smart guys a year take an academic full ride to free up a schollie elsewhere.

In high school, our catcher was offered a 15% scholarship to play baseball at a Southland school. The head coach did his in home visit and saw they had a piano in the living room. Coach asked if he knew how to play and the catcher said, "Yes, a little. Don't like it too much. My mom uses it to practice for church choir."

The next day the coach called and said, "your 15% is no longer good. We got you a 100% full ride. Only catch is you have to take one piano class a semester." Catcher was a 'Music major' for one year while he got his basics. Switched to business as a sophomore but kept the scholarship until he graduated. Never played piano again! Lol

I think Brockmeyers ship was a ploy to get his brothers. If so it has failed so far.

Worry about numbers, the only I worry about is if I will wake up tommorrow morning and nottoo much of that.

Do not know about other sportsbut if you play football youare on a football ship period and count toward the 85 limit.

It would need to be a special kind of walk-on for me to give up a scholarship. We don't currently have that on UT's campus that I know of.

Every couple of years they put out the feel good video of the walk on getting a scholarship. Everyone gets misty eyed. But it doesn’t happen every year.

Walkons can play and not be on scholarship. Baker Mayfield’s freshman year at Tech was not on scholarship. He transferred after the season and Tech made him sit out a year when he even though he wasn’t on scholarship. In my opinion if you’re not on scholarship no school should have any say on what you do.

Yeah, but Baker Mayfield was a penis.

Yep, this is what I was referring to.

NIL is going to bring seen money onto the stage. That allows you to sue and as the illegal activity connected with bags now affects legal financial enterprise, you will see the IRS and FBI become a factor.

I can't wait to see a coach complain that several of his athletes got audited and it's all the rival schools fault! LMAO
