Formally140 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Given the school he went to. I’m sure his family had the income to do it. So irregardless of my opinion. There’s nothing stopping them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say you get 50%...does it really matter to the program or the school from their end? As others have said its going to save money somewhere in the program or university. In the case of OSU, pretty sure they have the scholarships endowed. Now might depend on exactly what is endowed, is it just scholarship or scholarship plus expenses. If moving one athlete from out of state to instate then drawing only half as much from the income off the endowment so the savings can go back in to grow the endowment investment or perhaps being used for an expense category, gear, meals etc. which might be more fungible.

School saves 45% of a scholarship. Everyone is happy. Money is money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the kid is moving with his personal coach I tend to think that the family has more of an income problem than a problem with income. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A person who may or may not live in my household basically gets in-state tuition at his out-of-state school as part of his particular deal. Our local state school would cost him something like $8,000 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard there were issues with staff at Lockport so with the acknowledgment of the Minnow asterisk*. This actually makes sense.

That’s why I simply said I would hope for better judgement. As in don’t smoke at school. Especially because I would be very confident it wasn’t the first time he got caught. The discussion I’ve had with several of my athletes has been “why would you smoke in school or listen to that person”. As in the common sense/“street smarts aspect. Long before the morality clause of it. Funny/sad story, one of my kids got caught smoking in school, not just school but in the wrestling room. So I was mildly irritated with him. Dude gets hit by a car a day later by an idiot driver. Kid still tries to go to practice because he didn’t want me more upset with him. After I made sure he was okay and in hospital. I’ve tried to make sure to have perspective I have never heard anything bad about him either. And I’ve heard plenty about top kids in the state. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
