A lot of the younger viewers may not realize this, but getting on scholarship is basically like being given a new car, value-wise. Each year.
a lot of old viewers may not realize this, but playing football for college is basically like having a job value-wise Each year
afe laid Oh definitely. But it was a job that walk-ons were doing for free before. I was just noting that some younger people who don't understand how freakishly expensive college is may not understand why it is so emotional.
dacypher22 a lot more than that
Damian Lillard 2.0 Well, that depends on the car. A "new car" could be anywhere from $19k up to $100k and more. I would say $19k - $100k per year is about the value of a year of university through a scholarship, and most are going to be closer to the lower-end of that scale. Yes, some colleges get close to $100k or more in tuition, but the very expensive schools either don't have sports or they do not offer full-ride scholarships. An example would be Harvard. Yes, they have a football team but no they do not offer full-ride scholarships, just like all of the other Ivy League schools.
dacypher22 I actually just found that out earlier today and it made me tear up during this video
someone's cutting onions in my room again
jefftkey making you sweat out your eyes?
Facts
Shut up
nah theres something in my eyes. its called tears yes im crying
The heck, in my room too 😭
Coach:well your not a walk on anymore
Nate: Omg thank you so much for this opportunity and scholarship
Coach: oh I meant your kicked off the team and the school
COMBUSTABL E hahahahaha
😂😂😂😂 savage!!!
😂😂😂 that would be cold ASF
Hahahah this made me die laughing when I was damn near crying.
COMBUSTABLE owned
The last one touched me
Kris Marshall same I actually started crying and I don't cry like over anything.
Kris Marshall same
Yeah, I'll admit it, this video made me cry
call the police
Yes indeed,i thought that last clip was the coolest of all of them.
I walked on to my college football team after all the practices work outs 110 yd sprints coach called me to his office and awarded me my scholarship.......my position coach came by and congratulated me. I walked out of there on cloud nine the first person I called was my mama holding back tears she was so happy for me. It was one of the proudest days of my life to achieve my dream. I'm proud of these guys.
Ik I'm late af but how did it go after that
@Mr. Scoot Scooter It could've been a small college so it wouldn't matter anyway
@Mr. Scoot Scooter Yeah you're probably right lol.
This boi lyin his arse off... Even if it was a "small college" guess what... small colleges dont generally give athletic scholarships anyways... Kinda depressing the things people do to feel better about themselves
French Doge looked up his name, dude put up 1400 yds and 23 td as a running back and 60 tackles and 2 forced fumbles as a defensive player and committed to south Alabama, which is a D1 school so they do give scholarships so very possible he’s telling the truth
I was a walk on for New Mexico State for my Junior and Senior year. Although i never got to experience earning a scholarship like these men, In just 2 years as a walk on, i earned a spot on the travel team, earned playing time in every game, and left my senior year a bowl champion. Still a dream come true. Congratulations to these players though, huge huge accomplishment
Dallas Hart it says on the roster for your junior year you played in no games and it had no stats for your senior year either
Dusty Gamer16 lmaooooo
@@dustin_puls8605 bruh😂
I almost had that scholarship moment but I was hospitalized and lost everything. I hope these kids and future kids appreciate it and much love and luck to these kids. Congrats
joe cooly how u have 136 thounsands subs
Damn that sucks bro
Cuz you're trash
Tig ol' Bitties 😂😂😂
@@jareldixon1980 I’m sorry that sucks
The last one really got me. Bringing his mom in on it and when she said I was going to the bank that day to put my car up as collateral. I felt that so deep. ❤️❤️
2 of my friends walked on D1 they were so happy when they got scholarships. hard workers these kids are, full classes and sports every day. Not easy at all.
The last one hit me like a bullet. Work hard play hard and achieve your dreams hard❤️
*shanks the 53 yard field goal 🤣🤣
Snipa Will he made it
JDC pranks Ik it was a joke
Snipa Will yeah ik
My son was blessed to get a scholarship right out of high school. These walk-ons definitely deserve it. Congrats young men
My eyes are sweating
Tristian Upton boi shut ur sensitive ass up
Nevermind I just cried
Kiante's mother's reaction brings me to tears every time.
Would have been nice if he had gone on to make the NFL....Sadly he was a bust and is probably working at McDonalds.
greg d he still has a college degree so probably doing something better than that
"Hey coach I need to work to afford to go to school"
"You'r off the team kid".
Nice.
This kind of took me out of it a bit. How can you expect that of a guy when he doesn't even play every Saturday. It's insane
I think the coach already had his mind made up about giving him a scholarship before that conversation so he was probably just messing with him
@@brendancarter3453 I think so too, but what of the kid was just like "okay, bet I quit" lmaooo
I remember when I got mine, and it’s hard to put it into words.
You’re on a team where most of the guys already have a ‘ship, and don’t have the perspective of how important each day is. Each practice, each workout, each meeting.
Life of a walk-on is impossible to understand unless you’ve lived it.
Proof or it didnt happen
Nothing more gratifying to me .
Is hard work paying off .
Tia Chapman is a real great mother and person.
I love how the team rally’s around their peers , such heart ❤️ warming
Im a walk on here at UNC and man I hope my day comes
Moon Man praying for you 🙏🙏 People living in NC gotta stick together 🤙🤙🔥
It will 🙃
Moon Man It will bro, you keep putting in that work and your number is going to be called.
aye fam, I'm a track walk on at UNCG. Best of luck to you bro.
Dude UNC is my dream school to play basketball. Let me know what you think and what happens. Praying for the best for you
It started with getting chills watching these clips, then a huge smile, then I started crying. This is awesome
I love these videos so much! Not only is it beyond heartwarming to see the player and their family’s reaction, but to see how genuinely excited their teammates are for them just make my heart so happy!!!
I never cry before from a video, but that last whew man touched my heart a lot... reminded me about how much my football coached cared about each one of us athletes in a special way.
i'd be salty af if a back up kicker got a scholarship over me
james Jones 3rd string kicker
If you are the starter and you don’t have a Scholarship you shouldn’t be playing.
Cody Collins not enough money to go around on some schools
#kickersarepeopletoo But I would be too
Every team needs a kicker. Every. Single. One.
Its crazy how walk ons be some of the best players. All it takes its recognition. Being an Auburn fan, seeing Will Hastings walk on as a onside kicker, and now he's one of the best receivers coming back in the SEC.
I love watching these. I had to work my way thru college and it took longer than 4 years, but to see these guys get their scholarships is pure joy.
Damn bro, such a special moment
This made me tear up with happy tears for these young men whose dreams came true.. God bless these young men. Hope this journey takes them where they want to go.
Damn I absolutely love this!!! Congratulations kids!!! Keep working hard!!!! $beautiful
the support from the teammates is just heartwarming 😊✊🏼
I love how excited they are for each other.
These videos make me cry,
With love from east Africa,uganda
Love how the teammates get so excited for them!
This was great. Congrats to all walk-ons!!!
This is awesome! Much love to all the players who work their tail off to get here!❤️💯
It's heartwarming to see how happy all the other players are.
These clips never get old. Those guys work their tails off for those teams. It is nice to see it work out for them
These scholarship offers warm my heart!!!
Wonderful stuff..thank you and congrats players 👍
This just shows if u work hard things can happen!! Congrats to all of these players!!@
Ok that made me shed some tears of joy !
God bless each and every one of you. You change people's lives in seconds! What a feeling that must be.
I love how hyped the other players are for the guys.
Love these kind of vids make me so happy
It so nice to see a video of good kids getting their dreams.
I'm a Texas fan so I am joyful about the OT but that ECU wow
Gotta love it. Real emotions.
Good shit. Need more positive stuff like this.
This is amazing. I'm crying...
man that made me cry.,.,, i dont do sports but when i got my academic scholarship awarded it was amazing, and i already knew i would get it. i can’t imagine the amount of stress taken off their shoulders.
ESPN you did it again.... I don't watch you to cry! Damn you!!!!!!
The last one was awesome.
Flat out awesome! 😁
The last one is amazing
Awesome moment for those kids..
These students have earned it. So proud of them.
Wow what a great video
Regards,from east Africa,uganda
This stuff warms my heart...not much better in sports
That last dude on the Carolina panthers practice squad
Good for him. That’s a minimum 180K salary and it sounds like his family could really use that. That’s good to hear.
You dont know how hard these kids work to get there. This video is GREAT!
Tears of joy
God bless them. So cited on a few
That last one tho.... I'm not crying your crying
God Bless these Honest Hard Working Young Ladies & Young Men... One day they will make a POSITIVE difference in our society...🙏
I love videos like this 💯🙌🏽
Walk on to scholly is the one of the biggest achievements one can make in college sports. Nothing but sheer effort and hard work.
This made me cry man
Hope everyone is having a great year so far. Know your are worth it and amazing!!
Goosebumps straight up goosebumps
Ive been through tough times and know poor as good as anyone. I decided that i wanted better and i just turned 18 and started college and am BLESSED with my grandma and aunt that support me where i can play football and pursue my career. Happy for these guys
As a fellow ECU student, that last one was the best
Chills from that last one
Damn man hit me hard in the feels.
I love these
This is cool and all for football, but real talk, baseball needs more than just 11 full rides for a 40 man roster
Cardinals1916 facts
So true... baseball players are out there getting 1/4 scholarships and because of title IX there are wemons feild hockey players that get more scholarship money for a borderline club sport...
I thought it was at least half?
I’m not crying , you are
Oh wow. They were able to get the actress Curtia Torbert in this! It's always good to include some stars 🌟. Love it.
Man, that last story is a movie. I'm a 6'4" 250 pound man crying
man watching this just brought joy to me idk why i was given a full ride to EMU (eastern michigan) for a Linebacker this year and i was freaking out glad to start playing in a week ;)
Yeah whatever
Wow some dreams do come true
This was awesome
I'm not crying!
.
I am
God bless man❤️
I hope you boy go far in life.
And this is why you work your hardest no matter what. It pays off
the last one hit home for me. i was a highly scouted prospect my jr/sr year before i tore both acl's in one game. the kids earned the scholarships for sure!
Proof or it didn't happen
The last one was the best
They hypnotized the guy and gave him a scholarship when he woke up
Never got a scholarship for sports or anything like that, but I did get a full academic scholarship my senior year of college. When I saw that email I could not even comprehend what had happened to me. I was in such disbelief I reloaded the email probably a dozen time. I'm just thankful for my incredibly supportive mom and sister as well as my great group of friends. I'm forever grateful of the opportunities awarded to me by my institution
hardwork right there fam
Hard work does pay off.
That last one...oof, who cut dem onions.
Love this!!
Last one had me tearing up
I swear I'm not crying.
I’m going to be doing walk ons when I get in to college and I’m putting everything into it I will make that team!!
Bro I cried too.
These onions are making me cry
