I was referencing your NIL deal with Built Bar

I was asking if that deal still existed. There’s a difference in how a walk-on earns a free tuition in that scenario.

I am unaware if Olsen was offered a PWO or just asked to walk on. But PWO works the same at Utah as elsewhere. They can’t offer any financial assistance for at least one year.
