pay tuition for all walk-ons
That is what BYU just did. ESPN Link
quote:
The BYU athletic department helped broker opportunities for every walk-on member of the football team to sign endorsement deals with a sponsor that would cover the cost of their tuition for at least one year.
The arrangement -- which is possible due to recent NCAA rule changes that allow college athletes to make money from their names, images and likenesses (NIL) -- was announced during a team meeting this week. All 123 members of the Cougars football program were offered an endorsement deal with protein bar company Built Brands

Scholarship players can receive $1,000 each for representing the company. The 36 walk-on players on the roster were offered what amounts to privately funded scholarships, although the players will be paid directly and can spend that money in any way they choose, according to associate athletic director Gary Veron.

4* OT Luke Brown is a guy KN thinks Auburn fans should be paying attention to. Sounds like he likes Auburn and Will Friend has been on him for a while now. He visited in June.
Another guy that to keep an eye on is 4* LB Robert Woodyard. He’s a long time Bama commit but he took an official visit to Auburn late June and was a visitor at BCW. Going to be a tough pull for many obvious reasons but multiple trips to Auburn this summer is a nice indicator of his interest.
