The figuring out of Idaho's scholarship count

Earlier today, we previewed the 2011-2012 Idaho squad but were confused about who was and wasn't on scholarship.

Two Vandal fans quickly responded, offering the same link to a Mark Nelke-penned feature in the CDAPress.

"I think the answer to the scholarship/numbers questions can be found in this article from the Coeur d'Alene Press. In the lower half of the article it sounds like is Idaho is maxed out on scholarships this year Hill will pay his own way and then receive a scholarship next year. Washington State wanted him as an "invited walk-on" but apparently could not make that commitment."

You asked for help regarding Idaho's number of scholarships being 1 over the limit. I believe one of the new recruits (Connor Hill) may be a walk-on and pay his own way for his first year and then earn a scholarship the next year - according to this article.

Thanks guys for both the answer and the quickness in sending it along.
