Pros and Cons of the Transfer Portal

True...and virtually everyone else on this site understands my point.

I understand that you really don't have a valid point.

Don’t make false statements; don’t get called out for making false statements. Pretty simple.

What was his point?

Serious question: why do schools charge more for an OOS student?

What is it about an OOS student that makes them more expensive? Everything (dining, lodging, tuition) is billed separately, so I fail to see why it should cost more for someone NOT from this state to attend our school(s) if they want to…

Flip the argument, do other states charge OOS tuition for Montana students? If so, why? It's not like I'm in the market. Just asking.

He was trying to say it’s sad that players who enter the portal and don’t land anywhere can’t go to college anymore.

That was clearly one of those false statements that you never make. I never said it was sad…just unrealistic.

What did you mean by the word "sad"? See below.

"El rod...to your point, too many of those players can't go back to school without the scholarship they chose to give up thinking there was a better deal out there for them. Sad deal."

Yep…you got me on that one hoops. But I know you agree with me.

The families of in-state students are paying taxes to support and subsidize the university system. Out of state families don’t pay taxes in MT.

Always irritated me. I paid taxes in AZ for 21 years. Moved away and my daughter wanted to attend UA 18 months later. Potential tuition DOUBLED because I now lived in Texas. So she went to Texas Tech instead! Lol

Was she better for it?

So, you were proven to have said it was sad, after saying you never said it was sad. Is that correct?

 

[Mick Belker]

Its the Law of Intended Consequences. IF you hadn't moved, this post would not have occured, yada, yada, yada.

Is it though?

Yes. My apologies.

Sort of - it is actually a scholarship more than a discount. Yes it helps, but you:

1. Have to be eligible
2. It is a scholarship, so you have to apply
3. Be selected for said scholarship

Thanks for the clarification.
