We're logistically challenged in proverb

 We're logistically challenged in recruiting, and sometimes we're a little late on guys, and we don't get the best athletes in America. So our walk-on program has to strengthen the efforts we have with scholarship players. Local kids are sometimes overlooked because they're not as fast or as big or as strong, and they come in here with the attitude of, 'I'm good enough to play.' If they prove it, we give them a scholarship.

 There will be two guys competing. I don't look if a guy is a walk-on or a guy is a scholarship player. I'm looking at who is the best guy that's going to give us our best opportunity to win. That's who we're going to go with. Walk-on or scholarship means nothing to me.

 I was valet-parking every night. When it's all said and done, I was glad I was a walk-on. That made me work harder. That made me want to beat the scholarship player. I wanted to prove wrong all of the coaches who wouldn't give me a scholarship.

 I have a spot on the team. Right now, I guess you could say I am a walk-on. But I will be treated just like any other player on the team. As far as a scholarship goes, he likes to reward players who work hard. Every player that has stayed with the program has earned a scholarship.

 When they get here, we treat them all the same. It doesn't matter if you're on scholarship or if you're a walk-on. You get a fair chance. Walk-ons might not pick up their scholarship check on the first of each month, but not one of the coaches will treat them like a scrub. They can win the job as easily as the players we've invested time and money in.

 I have a great deal of respect for people who stay in a program without the benefit of a scholarship and go through the grind every day, just hoping for that one time when they are able to put a uniform on and play in the college game. There are a lot of guys around the country who do that, and you have a great deal more respect for those guys than the guys who play on scholarship.

 My wife said this was supposed to be a steppingstone, and we've been here 22 years. The kids play only because they love it. If they leave early, it is only to chase other goals in academics. You don't have to worry about who is on scholarship and who is not on scholarship. It changes the atmosphere both in the meeting rooms and on the field. You give up the lights and a little money just to coach this.

 Leon has been accepted to Stanford. They want him to walk on. They have a guy in the program, but they're not going to give him a scholarship right now.

 It's kind of like walking on the field. We expect them to win. Well, we expect them to get a scholarship -- if that's something they want to do. Not every kid wants to play college football. But we think that if you're in this District 5 program and want to be a scholarship player, you should get one here. It's our job as coaches to help you get one.

 I told him we didn't have a scholarship available. We talked about how a walk-on gets a scholarship and that his best chance would come after two years.

 We look at what other universities in the region are doing [in terms of scholarship changes], as well as assessing the overall success of our own scholarship program on an annual basis.

 He has a lot of family with ties to Alcorn. He was looking for who had the best opportunity as far as a scholarship was concerned. It's closer to home. He always said the one that give him the best scholarship offer is who he was going to choose.

 I'm sure we had guys who wanted to go to Stanford like Jason Tomlinson, but it's not like they got offered a scholarship, . He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible. .. Maryland only offered [a scholarship] to one of our guys, and that was [safety] Greg Sudderth.

 The kids that were the up-and-coming seniors that were hoping to have a great senior season and play their way into a scholarship ? that's who it hits the hardest, ... With recruiting accelerating so much, having commitments prior to a senior year, the coaches aren't going to have enough video on kids from the New Orleans area to make that assessment.
