The Club Trillion Foundation is a new nonprofit created by best selling author and former walk-on basketball player at Ohio St, Mark Titus. The mission of the foundation is to provide scholarship resources and other opportunities for walk-on athletes.
The idea is simple: Give a scholarship to a student-athlete who doesn’t already have one. It’s something that happens every single semester on campuses all over America. But never has there been a national scholarship open to all walk-ons across an entire sport.
Glossed over in the debate whether college athletes should be paid is the case of the walk-on student-athlete, who is neither compensated with a scholarship nor allowed under the ridiculous NCAA rules to profit off their OWN name. And since being a college athlete requires a significant year-round time commitment, working an off-season job is often out of the question, leaving these walk-ons no choice but to take out substantial loans to pay for their education.
