Banned years ago.

Everyone eats at the same place or places, including SMU players.


In Hawaii the media interviews the players right next to where the training table setup is. The media has reported on what the players have to eat at their training table. During the 2007 season, two of the players even gave a video presentation of a training table meal. Sadly for Colt Brennan, the media interest in him got so overwhelming towards the end of the 2007 season that he would answer questions until there was no time for him to eat anything but the cold food on his plate that he never got to touch.

I didn't want to contradict you about this because you seem very sure of your point. But everything is out in the open in Hawaii and there is a clear divide between the scholarship players who eat at the training table and the walk-ons who have to bring their own food and eat away from them. Each year a few walk-ons are awarded scholarship and invariably one of the first things they say to the media is that they get to eat at the training table now that they are on scholarship. Soon Hawaii's starting QB will be able to eat at the training table and be on scholarship instead of having to deliver pizzas until late at night so that he can pay for his tuition.
