And, where exactly is that private funding coming from?

NCAA is going to allow payment under similar circumstances (use of name, likeness, etc).
College Athletes Are Now Closer To Getting Paid After NCAA Board OKs Plan
The change could be in place by the 2021-22 school year, as the NCAA backs measures that would let student-athletes be paid for their name, image and likeness.

I thought you said your grandmother was a slave - how did you jump to England?
You? I know some parents who would sponsor a goat so they can get their dd into the school and be a part of the soccer program. It's called a win, win

No it is called investment . It is how pro golfers start. They get a group of rich country club members pony up travel fees, entry fees, and expenses. In return they get a percentage of the tournamen income including endorsement income for a certain period of time. It bankrupts pros that do not make it. You want to put your daughter thru this?You?

Here lies my problem coach. Some coaches preach "scholarship" and a naive parent equals that to a full ride. That's on me, but it's how some minds work. So you get to the place your kid is a Jr and you find out those don;t come around often. You get a reality check about Cali schools as well. You see opportunities in humid and hot places or cold and freezing places around the country, but that's hard sell for some Cali girls who like the beach. My research tells me many Cali girls get home sick and transfer or quit as Fr ((not all)). I know one girl who took a full ride on the East Coast instead of 25% on the West Coast. Parents have bank, but the girl wanted to get away and go to college. Fast forward to Fall practice and she's calling dad crying because her pigtails are frozen and she can't hang at practice and wants to come home. That is a true story coach. Or, how about___________________________________________________________________________________Not all the stories are good coach. That's why the recruiting stopped for 7th graders and now they can;t talk until Jr year

One was and the other wasn’t. I have a grandmother that was a slave in the US. My grandparents from the Bahamas were part of the first settlers to the new world and were never slaves. I think my grandpa was one of the first with Royal blood to openly have “jungle fever.” My family donated materials to build Harvard University and the pineapples to start the industry in Hawaii. James Thompson aka Guinea Jim (nigger loving Jim) was one of the original Scottish planters to arrive in the new world and is my legitimate grandpa.

apples and oranges... you were talking about people sponsoring "GOAT"s and how you change the subject. My point is if you are sponsored by a private alumni group you are now in debt to someone.Here lies my problem coach. Some coaches preach "scholarship" and a naive parent equals that to a full ride.

You are changing the subject. No club coach worth anything preaches full ride.
End of Sophomore year because you are not a junior until you step foot on the hs campus or pass your sophomore year.
I was sold Oranges and Apples, but they had worms in them. They don;t say, "come to me and I will get you a full ride." They say, "come to me and I will get you a scholarship. I am talking about sponsoring a goat or a player that is in the actual plans of the coaches stargedy to win. The sponsor get's to come to the games and their dd get;s to go to the school. That is it. Were not talking about the Runin Rebels bro. I liked Tark because he saw all the BS going on and took care of his players, like any good coach would back in those days. Everyone won back then

Tark took players that should have been in jail instead of a classroom.

Very valid point coach. Lot’s of apples with worms. They also haven’t been washed off and have pesticides on them too.I was sold Oranges and Apples, but they had worms in them.

How does a coach teach tactics to a group of kids that don’t have the requisite skill set (ball skills)? I don’t think it’s possible. That’s why we have so much kickball. Is it possible to teach a group of kids to play out of the back without proper ball skills?

I was assuming your grandmother was from Brazil, or some other country that emancipated late. It is 155 years from 1865 to 2020. Hard to bridge that gap in 3 generations. Not impossible, but rare.
I went surfing on the Island of Kauii one time with my bro. He's lived there for 30 years. Were adopted btw. My hair is blond and he looks like a local. In fact, he takes the tourist on adventures and they think he's a local and he goes along with it to make a buck. My wife's cousin sings on the island of Maui at those pig roasts. He's from LA and is Guatemalan 100%. However, if you look at his cover, he looks like he's lived on the island forever and he's from East LA. Anyway, I go to my bro's secret spot 20 years ago and I immediately get harassed and asked to leave the break. I did and went to the tourist spot all mad at my bro for taking me out to the locals only spot. My brother said I tried to hard to be cool with the locals and they didnt like that. I went back 20 years later and it was super fun and everyone treated me cool. They ddint; talk to me, but I got a few waves

You mean Tarkanian and the players?

Valid point and I am not sure what happened. There were slaves in the Bahamas but my grandmother clearly wasn’t. I think my grandmother married a freed slave when she was 14 and they moved to Florida and worked in the USA as migrant workers. I don’t think there was much difference.
How does that bankrupt pros? Did you mean that it was a loan, not a sponsorship?

You know one has asked this question of @MacDre and @Ellejustus . Why do your girls HA
These players sign a contract for the funds or investment with return. There can be a clause that if they do not pay the investment back they owe the group money. So if they do not do well on the PGA they could be in a world of debt. It is private loans so to speak.
