My American friends, help me out here, the title of this thread is a series of words that actually make a sentence?? Yes. What it really means is someone paid a shit load of money to the school so the boy could play football. Like when Mr. Burns was gonna cut a cheque for his son to go to Yale and they wanted an international airport. Bloomington, Indiana could use an international airport.

He's basically a walk on. It doesn't take "shit piles" or "they name a building after you" amounts of money to do that. It takes tuition. That's about it. Yeah, it just means he got in and qualified for the team but wasn't a high school stand out or anything.

It was just one of those rare instances were the progeny of extremely rich and successful people catch a lucky break. He would have walked on no matter who his family was.

That kid's only like ten, surely. *Realises what the year is* WMXX was nearly twenty years ago, I was just twelve when Benoit won the title. Oh no, that means the Benoit deaths were fifteen years ago. I don't like this passage of time malarky. Can time slow down? Seriously.

Also, Indiana historically has sucked as a football program (understatement of the century), so it's not like a high bar is needed to get on our team.
