We have 11.75 scholarships to give from the school. We have another five we can do from NIL. Around 16 total.
Most all the other SEC schools have many more scholarships they can use for baseball from many different sources.
Every baseball player at lsu has a full ride. In La they have an alum that owns a baseball equipment company, Marucci, and he gives a million a year - to baseball NIL. Also each La state Senator is given three scholarships to award to whomever he/she/it wants to give them to. Those given to baseball players don't have to use a scholarship from the school and it doesn’t count toward the 11.75.
ut Knox has a wealthy donor company, Spyre Marketing, that gives them all sorts of money for baseball.
a&m and tex have oil money out the wazzu.
uga and uf have the use of lottery scholarships.
Vandy has a ton of athletic scholarships for almost all their baseball players from several private sources.
I was told that the two coaches of college baseball in the state of Alabama have the toughest jobs in the SEC. No lottery in Al.
Our record is thus impacted.
