Preferred walkon.

[BILLYBOB]

From 24/7 -  "3-star offensive guard Ty Clary has committed to be a preferred walk-on at Arkansas. He becomes the fourth public commitment for the Razorbacks in the Class of 2017."

[BILLYBOB]

He turned down offers from: Kansas, Air Force, Dartmouth, Arkansas State, Cincinnati, Central Arkansas, Missouri State and Coastal Carolina.

[BILLYBOB]

The fact that he turned down a Dartmouth scholarship, worth around $250,000, in order to walk-on at Arkansas, says a lot about this young man's loyalty to Arkansas...AND the direction and leadership of our program. This is obviously a very high quality person, who had other very attractive options, who choose to commit to the Razorbacks.

I know the Arkansas football program has it issues, but I like the long term direction in which we're headed.

Dartmouth, or any Ivy League school,  doesn't offer football scholarships.  He may get a little financial aid but he did not turn down $250,000.

I stand corrected. Thank you. None-the-less, my point stands. Clary is an extremely impressive young man, who had multiple other attractive options, and he choose to walk on at Arkansas. That, to me, says something.

They offer baseball scholarships.

Thanks for the info. Seems like a solid player who is loyal and dreamed of being a Hog. Congratulations to the young man!

Hearing he could count against the 2018 class.

they can get more than a little.. it is based on need, the athletes in theory. but the teams need in reality.. Ivy schools have foundations that support athletics just as we do... they pay for players, just in a different format...

I have a nephew that was Ivy league in track.. I was told by his parents they paid less than $4000 dollars per year for all 4 years..

I'd call that close to $250,000... and worth much more after college...

[hawgfan4life]

An academy appointment was valued at close to $400K about five years ago.  If he turned down Air Force, he turned down being set for life if he had gone and fulfilled the academy and enlistment requirements.  The fact he was offered by an academy is impressive.

Yes it is.. my friend's son is going to the Naval Academy for golf next year.. he had to do prep this year at the Hill School .. the parents are paying $12,000  towards the cost of $56,000.. not sure what they are paying at the Academy but he turned down PSU to accept the extra year and chance to go to the Academy..

You don't pay anything to go to a service academy. They pay you.

[hawgfan4life]

You don't pay anything to go to a service academy. They pay you.

Actually, cadets do pay an initial fee when they report their first year.  It isn't much but is required.  After that, they pay cadets a monthly stipend.  That is one reason it is valued so high.  4 years of stipends adds up.

The cadets have "pay" taken out to pay for uniforms and books.  They "still" have money left over every month.   So basically it is paid for and uniforms and books will not come close to what the total cost is when you throw in room and board.   The last I checked they get half a 2nd Lt's basic pay while they are attending the service academy, at least that is how it worked when I attended West Point.   Basically the military is "paying" you to attend college whether you are an athlete or not.  You enlist in the military the very first day you attend.  You just are allowed to go to college for academic and military training the first 4 years.

Proud to have you join the HOGS, Mr. Clary. Wooo Pig!

and then, as in the case I mentioned above, teach officers how to play golf..
