For those reading this I stress previous 5-6 figure #s were BS. The collective didn't have the resources from '22 thru June '24. Larger donating will be there for '24-25, but as told it will just be doled out indiscriminately. Plus these "sources" are tossing out unrealistic #s. Donors want their $ invested wisely. They are not going to give large chunks annually to see it evaporate on players who leave anyway. Optimally a trust like fund to be gradually built while still providing for present needs. Nor will auction-like outbidding happen. Also payment/merch payouts/contracts may need to be adjusted to the portal windows somehow. At any rate the OSU NIL situation is improving, but it's never going to compete with larger collectives. However, nor will it ever be shady!! There is also a move by some schools to get reimbursed for schollie $ if an athlete enters the portal after a term is paid, and signs with another school before the term ends. I'm not sure OSU will venture down that rabbit hole?! As far as baseball goes... funds/options are a bit more important due to the low scholarship limit and fairly large roster. But, the amounts don't have to be crazy big to really help out. As players on partials can at least get school paid/etc with a low 5 figure number. |

The fact that Rurek is not answering his texts makes me wonder if something is up with him as well.
Probably just too soon to talk about the transfers, or maybe he is also exploring other opportunities.

Low 5 figure number will not cover players on partials in baseball. Do you know how much tuition is? Low 5 figures won’t even cover 1 term. Low 6’s would be needed. |

Are you including the decimal point? Low 5 figures…say $30k ($30,000) added to a partial (say 1/3-1/2) scholarship would be more than sufficient to get by at OSU. Not stylin, but not going into debt either. Why would $100,000 per year be needed? |

I was including everything. I was not talking per year. I typoed the 1 term. I meant 1 player. My bad. |

Low 5 figure number will not cover players on partials in baseball. Do you know how much tuition is? Low 5 figures won’t even cover 1 term. Low 6’s would be needed. Looks like tuition, fees and supplies for 16 credits a term runs about $7500 for E-Campus and $5500 for in state on campus. For out of state on campus $12000 per term. Typical dinning program and dorm room will run you another $4500 a term. So a California baseball kid on a partial with on campus living is looking at like 10k a term if they don't have tuition agreements to avoid our of state tuition or food provided. An in state kid would be way more reasonable at 7k a term. This post brought to you by OSU tuition and lodging calculators. |

That sucks Judge - I suspect more than care to admit are/ have been in the same boat! My daughter is headed out of state to attend college next year for the same reason! |

I'm gritting my teeth paying money to the evil empire in Eugene. Unfortunately, OSU doesn't have the major she's looking for. That's unfortunate. When my oldest thought his wrestling career was over due to injuries, he toured uofo and that alone was a rough day and I also feared writing them a check. Made me nauseous. Fortunately he healed up and resumed wrestling. Middle one - was down to UW and OSU. UW offer wasn't great given astronomical out of state tuition, OSU offered him full academic scholarship for all 4 years which is basically me winning the lottery (thanks to him). Graduates in June. Youngest went to college for 1 term and decided he'd rather learn a trade. He's now an electrician apprentice and loving every minute of it. |
