here's the thing. i'm not sure i like a guy that has a "header" or whatever you call it of "Scholarship Provider". also the "money talks" just doesn't seem like a great message either.

my other question, who really pays for these trips? doesn't the student/his family have to pay? they have to be booking this stuff weeks in advance, flights get crazy expensive if you wait until the last minute.

he's a coach... Scholarship provider is supposed to refer to his coaching ability. Agree that the money talks thing sends a shady message though.

And yes, kids have to pay for themselves to go, but family and friends can help them.

friends can help? sounds a bit shady, i mean i understand if it's sharing a car ride, but buying another friend a plane ticket?

Yeah, parents do it all of the time, Keshawn Johnson Jr's dad has helped kids go places I believe.

I have a good friend who's son had a longtime neighborhood friend who's parents were well to do. The kids grew up playing league baseball together. When it came time for them to go to high school, the well to do parents paid the tuition for my buddy's kid to go to Creighton Prep with their son and continue playing baseball on the same team.

Personally, I thought hookers and blow meant something else but at a Miami Hurricane practice this is what you get.

Please notice the THUMBS UP off the right shoulder of #40. The coaches are experts.
