Eastern students will return to the classroom full time for the 2021-22 school year. This banner was placed in front of the school during
the early portion of the pandemic which required the closure of schools.
Eagles return to school Aug. 26
By Sarah Hawley

REEDSVILLE — Eastern Local students will
return to the classroom
full time when the 202122 school year begins on
Aug. 26. Open house will
be held on Aug. 24 from
5-7 p.m.
Supt. Steve Ohlinger
stated that the district
will be working to have
as normal a school year
as possible continuing
in and coming out of a
pandemic.
This means that
students will be in the
classroom five days per
week with no remote
learning option to begin
the school year. Additionally, the district will
“recommend, but not
require” masks for students to begin the year.
Masks will be mandatory on buses as they are
considered public transportation under the CDC
requirements.
“Children need the
structure of school. As
well as we did transitioning, kids struggled
both academically and
socially,” said Ohlinger
of the 2020-21 school
year which saw a mix
of blended and remote
learning. “We will return
to what our schools do
best which is teach children face to face.”
Ohlinger acknowledged that things
could change quickly,
depending on data and
mandates from state or
federal agencies.
The district will continue with virus precautions, including cleaning
and sanitizing procedures, asking parents to
monitor temperatures
and symptoms and
physical distancing in the
schools.
Ohlinger gave credit to
the staff for their work in
keeping the school clean
and sanitized throughout
the school year.
Eastern students will
also notice a change in
the administrative structure for the upcoming
school year.
Dettwiller has joined
the district as the assistant superintendent,
with him transitioning
to the superintendent
position when Ohlinger
retires at the end of the
calendar year.
With the departure of
Middle School Principal
Bill Francis at the close
of the 2020-21 school
year to accept a position
in another district, the
decision was made to
restructure the administration for the principal
positions in the district.
Robin Burrow, who
was previously the K-4
principal will now be
the K-6 Principal, with
Shawn Bush, who was
the high school principal,
now serving as the 7-12
principal.
With the change will
some an adjustment to
the drop of procedure
for the 5-8 students.
Fifth and sixth graders
getting dropped off this
year will do so at the
front entrance to the
Elementary and seventh
and eighth graders will
go through the entrance
behind the High School.
Additionally, Joe Barnhart — who had served
as a school resource officer through the sheriff’s
office — has been hired
directly by the district
to serve as an in-house
school resource officer for
the district. Barnhart will
also be employed as a bus
driver in the district.
Other staff changes
include Samantha Carroll
as a high school language
arts teacher and Stacey
Marcinko and Mandy
Bush as aides.

RACINE — Southern
Local students will be
returning to the classroom on Aug. 26, with
five days of in-person
learning for all students.
While Southern maintained five days of inperson instruction during the 2020-21 school
year, there was a remote
learning option during
that school year. Now, all
students will return to
the buildings.
“We are looking forward to the start of the
2021-22 school year. As
we begin this year, we
want to inform parents
of key components that
we feel need to happen
to have a successful
year. We are still cautious about the lingering
COVID guidelines and
the efforts to keep our
kids safe,” stated Supt.
Tony Deem in a letter to
parents.
This year, Southern
will not be checking
temperatures of students
before they enter the
building, but is instead
asking that parents conduct the temperature
checks at home and
monitor the health of
their children. “If in
doubt, please keep them
home until symptom-free
for 24 hours without
the help of medication,”
stated Deem.
Southern will continue
to practice physical distancing of three feet,
maintain intense sanitation of rooms throughout
the day, maintain oneway hallways, give students scheduled breaks
and serve meals in
classrooms for preschoolsixth grade.

Proposed bill would nix conceal carry license
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — A concealed
weapons permit would
become optional and
the requirement that
individuals “promptly”
notify police officers
that they are carrying a
concealed weapon would
be eliminated, under legislation proposed in the
Ohio Senate.
The bill is similar to a
measure pending in the
Ohio House, and is one
of several GOP-backed
proposals in recent years
seeking to expand gun
rights in Ohio. The new
concealed weapons bill,
dubbed “Constitutional
Carry” by its backers,
was introduced Aug. 5
by state Sen. Terry Johnson, a Republican from
southern Ohio’s Scioto
County.
Keeping the permit
optional — as opposed
to eliminating it altogether — would allow
gunowners who obtain
it to carry a concealed
weapon in states with
reciprocity agreements
recognizing such permits.
since concealed carry
became law,” said Dean
Rieck, the association’s
executive director.
The statewide chapter
of the Fraternal Order
of Police opposes it,
with government affairs
director Mike Weinman
saying “background
checks and training and
the notification are absolutely necessary.”
In January, GOP Gov.
Mike DeWine signed a
bill into law eliminating an individual’s duty
to retreat before using
force. The measure
expands the so-called
“stand your ground”
right from an individual’s
house and car to any
place, “if that person is
in a place in which the
person lawfully has a
right to be.”
DeWine had previously signaled he might
veto the bill, and had
expressed dissatisfaction
lawmakers were ignoring his own legislation
proposed after the 2019
mass shooting in Dayton
that killed nine. Instead,
he signed the stand your
Johnson did not return
messages seeking comment on the bill. Earlier this year, Rep. Tom
Brinkman, a Cincinnati
Republican, noted it’s
already legal to openly
carry a firearm in Ohio
without a license or
training.
“In order to avoid
unnecessary hassle from
the public or law enforcement, one may decide to
put a coat or jacket over
their firearm,” Brinkman, sponsor of the
House legislation, told
the House Government
Oversight Committee in
April. “Sadly, that individual instantly turns
into a felon if they have
not gone through some
… government-mandated
rigmarole first.”
The concept has the
backing of the Buckeye
Firearms Association,
which says 21 other
states allow people to
carry a concealed weapon without a license.
“Ohioans have proven
themselves to be overwhelmingly law-abiding
over the past 17 years
ground bill in “the spirit
of cooperation” with the
General Assembly.
DeWine’s proposals include mandatory
data entry on warrants
for serious crimes into
state and federal background check databases,
increased penalties for
people found in illegal
possession of a gun, and
increased penalties for
so-called straw purchases, when a third party
buys a weapon for someone prohibited from such
purchases.
Though the governor
inserted the measures
into the state budget,
Republican lawmakers
took them out before
passing the $75 billion
spending plan in June.
In April, Democrats in
the Ohio House unveiled
several gun control proposals including universal background checks
for gun purchases and
so-called “red flag” laws
allowing for the temporary removal of weapons
from individuals deemed
a risk to themselves or
others.

and a half Friday, after an armed man ran onto the
grounds during a local police investigation of gunshots on the streets surrounding the base.
Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling posted a note on its
Facebook page saying the person was spotted on
the south side of the base. The naval support facility at the north end of the base is used by Marine
Helicopter Squadron One, the fleet of green helicopters that carry the president and vice president.
The individual was detained and will be transferred to the Metropolitan Police Department, base
officials said. The lockdown was lifted around 3
p.m. and cars slowly started moving on and off the

people, but a later report said only one person was
at large.
The 905-acre base in southeast Washington houses Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard units,
along with the Washington field office of the Naval
Criminal Investigative Service and the headquarters of the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Minneapolis to curb stops
for minor traffic violators
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minneapolis police
will no longer stop motorists for minor traffic
violations, such as expired tabs or an air freshener
hanging from their rearview mirror, according to a
new policy change.
Police Chief Medaria Arrandondo, in an internal memo Thursday, said the move comes after
examining how officers can better use time and
resources.
“MPD will no longer be conducting traffic stops
solely for these offenses: expired tabs, an item
dangling from a mirror, or not having a working
license plate light,” Arradondo wrote in the memo
obtained by the Star Tribune.
Critics have long argued that low-level traffic
stops in which officers use a minor traffic or equipment violation as a justification for pulling over
someone they want to investigate contribute to
racial disparities in the criminal justice system.

Marshall’s Noe Flight School officially opens
Staff Report
HUNTINGTON,
W.Va. — Amid the noise
and bustling activity of
a busy Yeager Airport,
Marshall University this
week marked the official
opening of the Bill Noe
Flight School in Charleston, W.Va.
According to a news
release from the university, the event was
attended by federal, state
and local officials, education executives, incoming
aviation students, airline
industry representatives and area residents,
University President
Jerome A. Gilbert and
more than a dozen others cut the ribbon for the
Maier Aviation Building
and a 12,000-square-foot
hangar located on Eagle
Mountain Road.
“Back in 2017, shortly
after I arrived at Marshall, the idea of developing an aviation initiative
began to come together,”
Gilbert said. “It was the
vision of a lot of people
who knew its potential
for our region. Today,
we are celebrating this
incredible achievement
that is the product of successful partnerships with
many individuals, companies and organizations.
This dream of creating a
flight school for Marshall
is realized today.”
The flight school will
welcome at least 20
students in its inaugural class, which is set
to begin in two weeks.
Additional students are
already in the admissions
pipeline and are expected
to join the class. Students will earn a fouryear *Commercial Pilot:
Fixed Wing Bachelor
of Science degree. The
ground and flight courses
also will lead to a series
of FAA certifications,
preparing graduates
to become commercial
pilots of single and multiengine aircraft.
Marshall’s fleet, custom designed and painted with Marshall’s trademark Kelly green, will
include up to nine Cirrus
SR-20 planes which will
be the mainstay of the
program. It’s expected
a Piper Cherokee twinengine plane will also be
purchased.

IN BRIEF
Hawaii arrests 2 for
alleged fake vaccine cards
HONOLULU (AP) — Two visitors from U.S.
mainland were arrested for allegedly using fake
vaccine cards to travel to Hawaii.
Officials with the Hawaii attorney general’s
office arrested the visitors at Honolulu’s international airport, a spokesman for the agency said in
a statement.
Investigators said the two violated state rules
requiring travelers to produce either a negative
coronavirus test or proof of vaccination to avoid
quarantine upon entering the state.
Violating the state’s COVID-19 mandates, including falsifying a vaccination card, is a misdemeanor
that can result in a fine of up to $5,000, up to a
year in prison or both.

The history of Tu-Endie-Wei
There are quite a few
parks in Mason County,
and quite a few things
to do, but we’ve only got
one state park. Today,
Tu-Endie-Wei is a small,
well-manicured park,
but it wasn’t always that
way.
In 1827,
the editor of The
Spirit of
the Old
Dominion made
Ohio Valley
a visit
History
to Point
Chris
Pleasant.
Rizer
I’m sure he
was expecting to find a nice little
park where he could pay
his respects to the dead.
Instead, he found that
“fifty years have passed,
and the remains of the
gallant Lewis and his
officers are yet suffered
to moulder within the
unhallowed precincts
of a stable yard.” No
doubt, this is the stable
yard of Newman’s Tavern, now known as the
Mansion House. There
were no monuments to
their bravery, not even a
marker for their graves.
Many western Virginians, especially those
from the Shenandoah
and Kanawha Valleys,
saw this as eastern Virginia’s blatant disregard
for the sacrifices made
at Point Pleasant.
Another twenty years
went by before anyone
in Virginia’s State Legislature saw fit to try
and fix their mistakes.
In both 1849 and 1860,
acts were passed which
would’ve purchased the
land and built a monument. However, the Civil
War soon split Virginia
into two separate states,
and Point Pleasant
found itself under a new
state government, one
that had more important
things to worry about
than a park.
So, as any self-respecting county would, we
took the matter upon
ourselves. In 1874,
for the 100th anniversary of the battle, Point
Pleasant held one of its
largest celebrations on
record. Beginning at
what is today the riverfront entrance, a grand
parade made its way up
Main Street, past the
courthouse, to the fair-

The Mansion House at Tu-Endie-Wei State Park.
grounds (then near the
present Pleasant Valley
Hospital). The procession was led by WVU’s
Corp of Cadets and contained not one, but three
brass bands from Gallipolis, Point Pleasant,
and Ravenswood. Once
everybody was gathered
at the fairgrounds, music
was played, and speeches were made. A call
was also made, in front
of the entire crowd, for
donations towards buying the land at the Point
and building a monument. As it’s told by the
Weekly Register, only
one man shouted out his
opposition, and he was
promptly escorted away
lest he get himself hurt.
That day alone, the citizens of Mason, Gallia,
and Jackson Counties
raised over $600 (over
$15,000 today)! Following lunch, the procession returned to the
courthouse, where they
met a casket containing
remains from the battlefield. It was escorted
to Tu-Endie-Wei for
reburial.
Apparently, this grand
celebration provided the
guilt necessary for further action in Charleston. The following
year, the state provided
$3,500 ($86,000 today)
towards a monument.
This money sat forgotten until 1901, gaining
interest every year. It
wasn’t until 1901 that
both Virgil Lewis and
Livia Poffenbarger
approached the state
government once again,
and the funds were
rediscovered. By then,
the account totaled
$8,788. Both were also
told that the Ladies
Monument Association
also had $2,078, $600 of
which was from the celebration of 1874. With
this money, $10,866 in
total, the Point Pleasant
Battle Monument Commission bought what
was then four acres of
land at the Point and
christened it Tu-EndieWei, meaning “the point
where two waters meet”
in the Wyandot language.
The next seven years
were spent lobbying the
state and federal governments for help with the
monument. The state
acted first, appropriating
$5,000 in 1905. Three
years later, after denying him twice, Congress
was persuaded by local
congressman Charles
E. Hogg to put $10,000
towards a monument at
Point Pleasant. Equivalent to $450,000 today,
that $15,000 was plenty,
and the Battle
Monument was finished by the next year.
Finally, 135 after the
Battle of Point Pleasant,
a suitable monument
marked the battlefield
upon which 46 Virginians lost their lives.
For the next forty
years, the Daughters of
the American Revolution managed the Mansion House and park.
They also added new
monuments, some to
soldiers of the American
Revolution and others
to soldiers of the Great
War (This one has since
been moved to the courthouse). This era also
saw the reburial of Anne
Bailey and Chief Cornstalk within the park.
Finally, in 1956, Tu-Endie-Wei was absorbed into
the state park system.
Information from
Virgil Lewis’ “History
of the Battle of Point
Pleasant,” Livia Poffenbarger’s “Battle of Point
Pleasant,” the Weekly
Register, and the state
park system.

win Waterford
Invitational

BEVERLY, Ohio — As easy as 1-2-3.
The Gallia Academy golf programs came away
with one team title, a pair of individual runnerups and a trio of all-tournament team honorees
Wednesday at the 2021 Waterford Invitational,
presented by Jukebox Pizza, at Lakeside Golf
Course in Washington County.
The Blue Angels set a new school record for a
team score over 18 holes with a 345, which ended
up being 10 strokes better than the rest of the field
in the larger-school White Division bracket.
Warren was second with a 355, while Athens
(370), Marietta (415) and Logan (443) rounded
out the top-5 positions in the White Division.
Junior Maddi Meadows paced the Blue Angels
with a new 18-hole school record of 76, breaking
her sister’s Bailey mark of 80 from two years ago.
Addy Burke was next for GAHS with an 86,
while Emma Hammons and Kylee Cook completed
the winning mark with respective efforts of 89 and
94. Abby Hammons also fired a 102 for the Blue
Angels.
Both Meadows and Burke posted top-10 scores
from both divisional rounds, allowing each to
secure a spot on the all-tournament team. Meadows was second only to Ella Keffer (74) of Fort
Frye. Burke ended up fifth overall.
The Fort Frye girls won the smaller-school
Green Division title with a 378. Waterford was
second overall with a 390, while Federal Hocking
(450) and Meigs (485) rounded out the third and
fourth spots.
The Blue Devils ended up third overall in the
White Division bracket on the boys side after
posting a final tally of 323, placing behind only
eventual-champion Marietta (307) and runner-up
Belpre (313).
Junior Laith Hamid paced the Blue Devils with
an overall runner-up performance of 69, which
landed him as the lone local participant on the
boys all-tournament squad. Marietta’s A.J. Graham
won medalist honors with a 68.
Both William Hendrickson and Beau Johnson
followed Hamid for GAHS with matching 84s,
while Hunter Cook completed the team tally with
an 86. Cody Bowman and Carson Call also shot
respective rounds of 96 and 106.
Eastern placed fourth overall in the smallerschool Green Division with a 374, while Southern
ended up sixth with a 389. Waterford won the
Green Division with a 334, with Frontier (351)
and Crooksville (364) rounding out the top-3 positions.

The Cleveland Browns have seemingly found in quarterback Baker Mayfield the leader missing since Bernie Kosar led Cleveland to three
AFC title games from 1986-89.
Matured Mayfield leading Browns
By Tom Withers
AP Sports Writer
CLEVELAND — Baker
Mayfield has grown
up. There was no other
option.
“I had to hit rock bottom for a little bit,” he
said.
He’s rising, and judging
by last season, so are the
Browns.
As he picked at lunch
during a break last month
while shooting commercials at FirstEnergy Stadium, Mayfield exuded
some of that chip-on-hisshoulder confidence that
transported him from
college walk-on to NFL
starting quarterback.
That will always be on
display, defining him,
driving him. The brashness, though, has been
muted.
While discussing the
stuttering start to his pro
career, his future in Cleveland and expectations for
this season during a sitdown interview with The
Associated Press, there
was something noticeably
different about Mayfield.
He’s changed.
It’s not a 180-degree
turn by any means, but
Mayfield is more measured with his actions
and words: business
Baker. More of a leader,
a role model, franchise
quarterback.
“Experience,” he said,
“definitely teaches you.”
Mayfield crashed after
a record-setting rookie
year, only to bounce back
in 2020 under first-year
coach Kevin Stefanski.
On the eve of his fourth
training camp, he was
relaxed and reflective as
he prepared for a season
Browns fans have awaited
for a generation.
Mayfield helped Cleveland end the playoff
drought. Next challenge:
the Super Bowl, which
the Browns never have
reached.
He’s physically fit,
having dropped “bad
weight,” and in a good
place mentally. He’s
found inner peace, and
the 25-year-old feels a
strong connection with
this football-crazed city
and its fans. Cleveland is
where he wants to play
his entire career.
“We’ve talked about it,
Emily and I,” Mayfield
said, referring to his
wife, who co-stars with
him in those TV ads for
Progressive Insurance. “It
wouldn’t be the same if
we lived in a city where
they didn’t live, breathe
and die football. That’s
the atmosphere we want
— and it’s here.”
There’s an unmistakable bond between this
Ohio city and this Oklahoma quarterback. Both
underdogs, they’ve been
through good years and
bad ones. Knocked down
and counted out, they’ve
fought back.
“When I say that my
work ethic and mentality
fits right in here,” he said.
“I genuinely mean that.”
Even before being drafted first in 2018, Mayfield
sensed Cleveland was
where he belonged.
“If anybody’s going to
turn that franchise around
it would be me,” he
boasted at the combine
that year.
He was right.
The Browns went 1-31
in two seasons before he
arrived and spent two
decades discarding quarterbacks and coaches at
dizzying speed. In Mayfield, they have seemingly
found the leader missing
since Bernie Kosar led
Cleveland to three AFC
title games from 1986-89.
He’s eligible for a contract extension, but to
this point his agents and
the Browns have not had
formal talks.
It’s possible the team
wants Mayfield to replicate his strong 2020 — or
the Browns are spooked
by the massive deal Buffalo gave Josh Allen, who
signed a six-year, $258
million package.
Mayfield is under contract for two more years
and insists his focus is
solely on winning, another sign of development.
For a while, though, it
looked as if he might be
another bust.
After breaking Peyton Manning’s rookie
record for TD passes and
going 7-8-1, Mayfield
took things for granted.
He didn’t spend nearly
enough time working on
his craft, got heavy and
threw nearly as many
interceptions (21) as TDs
(22) in 2019.
Picked to contend for
the AFC North title, the
Browns disintegrated.
They went 6-10, fired
coach Freddie Kitchens
and Mayfield’s critics
circled with sharpened
knives.
“For the first time in
my life, I was kind of
listening to the outside
noise and I let that affect
me too much,” he said.
“I was so worried about
what type of picture I
needed to portray as a
franchise QB because
everybody was telling me
I had to be a certain way,
instead of just doing how
I’ve always done it —
which is how I’m here.”
Mayfield quickly
interjects he doesn’t
want to “sound cocky or
conceited.” It’s just that
others wanted him to be
someone he’s not.
“Aaron Rodgers and
Tom Brady aren’t the
same people,” he said. “I
listened to too much of
that for too long, had a
few losing seasons and
then realized, OK, I’ve
got to find a peace on the
inner side before I can
lead this team to where it
needs to go.”
While it would have
been easy to blame Cleveland’s ceaseless dysfunction, Mayfield held himself accountable.
“The whole 2019 season was just kind of a
miserable year,” he said,
glancing at a “Believe In
Yourself” tattoo on his left
forearm. “I expect a lot of
things out of myself and I
just didn’t play well. That
was a humbling experience.”

trek could hardly have headed home anything but happy with the experience.
Starting pitcher Andrew Heaney,
who was tagged for seven runs in five
innings in another struggle with his
new team, was having a hard time
reflecting on the memories in the
aftermath.
Still, even though the Yankees fell
into fourth place in the AL East — and
in the race for two wild-card spots —
there will be no forgetting this trip for
the rest of their careers.
“That was as special and breathtaking a setting for a baseball game as
I’ve ever been part of,” manager Aaron
Boone said.
José Abreu hit the first drive into
the sea of green stalks, and teammates
Eloy Jiménez and Seby Zavala followed him with homers for the White
Sox on this vintage summer night in
farm country with the teams in 1919style uniforms to match.
Judge wore custom-painted cleats
to commemorate the film, with the
famous line “If you build it, he will
come,” printed on the tongues and
cornstalks on the sides.
League ERA leader Lance Lynn
sidestepped a three-run homer by
Judge and a solo shot from Brett Gardner to finish five innings for the White
Sox, remaining unbeaten in his last
eight starts.
Costner started the evening with
a star’s entrance, slowly walking out
of the cornrows — like Shoeless Joe
Jackson and his ghost-like teammates
did in the film — before turning to
watch the players do the same for their
made-for-TV pregame introductions.
Costner’s address to the fans included
the obligatory question in ode to the
famous line from the movie, “Is this
heaven?”
No, it’s Iowa, but MLB will be back,
as Commissioner Rob Manfred promised for 2022, the teams still to be
determined.
“I wish we had a little time here to
kind of take it all in and really appreciate it,” Gardner said, “but the season
moves along in a hurry.”
Family first
La Russa missed the game to attend
the funeral for his sister’s husband
in Florida. The 76-year-old La Russa
would’ve fit right in at the site, with
his team in vintage wear.
“I was raised to embrace the history
of the game, and I think too often we
lose parts of it,” he said earlier this
week. “’Field of Dreams’ is a great
movie, and it embraces everything
about family and all the game’s all
about.”
Not quite moonlight Graham
Both teams were allowed a 27th
man on the roster, so the Yankees
chose outfielder Estevan Florial and
the White Sox summoned outfielder
Danny Mendick. Florial was about as
close as a player could come to Moonlight Graham, who got into only one
major league game with the New York
Giants in 1905, became a doctor in
Minnesota and had a significant role in
the movie plot. The 23-year-old Florial
had 28 prior plate appearances for the
Yankees this season.
Trainer’s room
Yankees: RHP Gerrit Cole and
LHP Jordan Montgomery, both on
the COVID-19 list since Aug. 2 and 3,
respectively, rejoined the team in Iowa
and could be slotted back in the rotation this weekend.
White Sox: RF Adam Engel left the
game in the eighth with tightness in
his right groin.
Up next
After an off day on Friday that was
built into the schedule as a contingency for rain, the Yankees and White
Sox travel east to Chicago to finish the
three-game series.
RHP Jameson Taillon (7-4, 3.82
ERA) pitches for the Yankees on Saturday night, with RHP Dylan Cease (9-6,

Competitive advantage? BYU’s NIL deal could test limits
By Ralph D. Russo
AP College Football Writer
A deal BYU has made
available to its football players could test how much
allowing athletes to be
compensated by outside
companies for name, image
and likeness can be used as a
competitive advantage.
Earlier this week, BYU
announced Built Brands —a Utah-based company that
makes protein snacks —will give all 123 members of
the Cougars’ football team
the opportunity to be paid to
promote its products.
Scholarship players can
earn $1,000. For walk-ons,
players who are not on
athletic scholarship, the payment will be equivalent to
the cost of a year’s tuition
at BYU, which ranges from
about $3,000 to $6,000 per
year.
“This is creative and
different,” said Blake Lawrence, the CEO of Opendorse, a firm that works with
schools on NIL-related matters from brand building to
compliance. “The first-move
advantage here for both BYU
and Built is very evident.”
BYU’s arrangement with
Built drew national attention
for the joyous celebration
it sparked among the players and because it seems
to provide the Cougars
a way to circumvent the
NCAA’s scholarship-limit
rules. Teams that play in the
highest division of college
football can only have 85
scholarship players on the
roster.
BYU athletic director
Tom Holmoe told the AP on
Friday that he and football
coach Kalani Sitake were
searching for a way to provide an NIL opportunity to
the entire team, not trying
to find a workaround to the
scholarship limit.
“The whole mindset
wasn’t to try to get a
recruiting advantage or
anything,” Sitake said. “It
was just to do what we
thought was right and to
help the walk-ons on this
team.”
But Holmoe didn’t refute
the idea that this could
benefit BYU.
“Are we saying that
people in collegiate football
these days are not looking
for competitive advantag-
es? That’s like the essence
of athletics is competitive
advantage,” said Holmoe,
who played seven season in
the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers in the 1980s.
“Competitive advantage
exists in life. It’s called creativity. You come up with
good ideas that give you a
competitive advantage.”
To satisfy their contracts
with Built, BYU football
players must wear a decal
with the company’s logo on
their practice helmets and
make at least one appearance at a company event.
Walk-ons are required to
make two appearances and
promote the company on
social media.
Holmoe said BYU did
not negotiate the deal with
Built Brands CEO Nick
Greer, who is a friend of
Sitake’s, but it was vetted
by the school’s general
counsel and president.
The NCAA has taken a
hands-off and permissive
approach to NIL, allowing
schools in states that do
not have NIL laws to set
their own policies. Utah
has no law, but the NCAA
still does not allow NIL
payments to be used as
recruiting inducements or
pay-for-play.
“There are still, I’ll say,
rules,” Holmoe said.
Built Brands is not funding scholarships, but paying athletes directly.
“(The players) don’t have
to pay for their tuition,”
Holmoe said. “They can do
whatever they want with
that money.”
For most walk-ons,
though, the money can be a
game-changer.
“It takes stress off for
sure,” said Nick Billoups, a
walk-on quarterback.
The NCAA lifted its longtime ban on athletes being
compensated for the use
of their names, images and
likenesses on July 1, opening the door for all kinds of
endorsement opportunities
for athletes.
But rules around what
athletes can and cannot
do differ from state to
state. Some states passed
NIL laws in an effort to
pressure the NCAA into
action and maybe give
their schools a competitive
advantage over those in
states that did not.
IN BRIEF
Vaccination or negative test
must for Saints, Wave games
Tulane, a private college located in New Orleans, said it
will have the same vaccination and testing requirements to
attend its home sporting events, becoming the first major
college football team to make such a move.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Superdome remains on
track to open at full capacity for New Orleans Saints games
this season, but only to fans who provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test taken 72 hours prior to
games, and who wear masks.
The City of New Orleans enacted new rules Thursday for
entertainment venues and indoor facilities hosting large
social gatherings on the heels of spiking COVID-19 related
hospitalizations in the state in recent weeks. That came
after the State of Louisiana enacted a mask mandate for
such venues.
