“He came very close to playing for Notre Dame. We offered him (a scholarship), we wanted him, but I just did not feel that it was in his best interest to play for his dad. His mother always said he would have gone there, but she didn't like the position coach.”
Greg Mattison
“Anybody we offered (a scholarship to) in the state of Wisconsin is in this program now.”
Bret Bielema
“I've never promised a player or a parent a scholarship or a guaranteed playing position.”
Ray Willis
“We are especially pleased that we were able to offer a $5,000 college scholarship during the party.”
Chris Wolf
“My thing is why go four years playing the game without it, you get a scholarship and you're not prepared for the college game. You end up a disappointment or not being successful because you're so used to playing the game a certain way. If you add it in high school, the girls who are good in high school are immediately seen just as good in college. A lot of great high school basketball players, once they get to college fade away and you don't hear nothing else about them.”
Will McKinney
“I'm just disappointed that Illinois hasn't offered [a scholarship to] Patrick [Beverley]. He really, really wants to go there. This is a kid that was dying for the blue and orange.”
Lamont Bryant
“Max really liked Virginia because they were the first to recruit him, the first to offer him [a scholarship]. I believe one of the reasons he committed was that they wanted him as a running back.”
