I have confirmed with a reliable source close to the program that UW uses a portion of their preferred walk-on slots for fundraising and it's above Coach Pete's head. So yes, they do sell off some of the preferred walk on spots to rich parents for some extra revenue for the athletic department. My source told me "everybody does it". The coaches have the preferred walk on recruits that they actually want and think can compete here and then they have the preferred walk-on recruits they are told to recruit so the athletic department can receive a donation from their parents. As long as these recruits are actually on the team for at least one season it's not admissions fraud. Let's not forget the athletic department is still in millions of dollars of debt from the stadium renovation. They need the money. So there you go. I was right.
