Western Michigan made walk-on Trevor Sweeney work for his scholarship offer this week -- by strapping it to a football and kicking it to him across the field.
Western Michigan walk-on gets his scholarship kicked at him on a football
The junior running back recovered the ball and discovered the letter as his teammates surrounded him.
“Sweeney, I couldn’t be prouder to award you and your family a full-ride scholarship,” the letter read.
“Kalamazoo’s always been my home,” Sweeney told MLive in 2013 before enrolling at Western Michigan. “I’ve always dreamed about playing at Western, ever since the time we played at Waldo [Stadium] as Rocket football kids.”
