Oh give me a break on the DJ interview. This has to be a token.

There is no axe to grind. I'm just clearing up the terms. It is what it is. Walk-ons are essential to the program. God bless them.

"Not sure what your point is. Of course walk-ons aren't getting money, that is the essential difference." Hooaah, that is exactly my point. A walk-on is a walk-on. Go look up in the NCAA Compliance Handbook and you will not find one word mentioned about a "preferred" walk-on. But, it does talk about walk-ons. A preferred walk-on is the coaching staff gently saying they would "prefer" you walk-on instead of giving you a scholarship! "As far as the others like training table, that is part of the cost of college either on a 5 day or 7 day meal plan and since walk-ons aren't getting money they pay... That also differs by team, some have separate dining facilities for scholarship players, some don't and they all eat together, so it really doesn't matter. And per diem? Sorry but players can't get paid for living expenses, that is a violation." Hooaah, not sure I follow you. Training table is what the NCAA mandates to teams allowing them one meal a day as a team, usually dinner. But, of thier choice. It is a meal that is not open to the general student body. You are right again, the walk on and the "preferred walk-on" for a lack of better term, don't get to eat that either. Well, not for free. And per diem, sorry but players do get them. Its supposed to be for meal money over the weekends. It helps to buy beer. As far as players not getting paid for living expenses you are wrong. If you live off campus you get a rent check. I would call that living expenses. If you choose not to be on the meal plan at the cafeteria then you can opt for cash to pay for your meal expenses. Or living expenses, whatever you want to call it. And it's not a violation either. It's all in the handbook.

Uhhhhh....ok. You don't get any scholarship money, you don't eat training table with the team, you don't get per diem for the weekends, so it sounds just like a walk-on to me, buddy. A walk on is a walk on, period. In the locker room among the team everyone knows who the walk-ons are. It's not like "oh, but he is a preferred walk-on." Every walk-on has the same opportunity, but just like scholarship players, some are better than others. Every walk-on is evaluated before being allowed to walk-on, or they should be, by either film or a tryout. But regardless, you don't receive any money at all, so it doesn't make a difference because you get no money! Those that are better then others get more reps. It is proved on the field.

A preferred walk-on is a walk-on. There is no such thing. Its just a line the coach feeds the walk on to make them feel good about walking on. Period.
