Northwestern Walk-On Receives Full Scholarship, Hugs From Entire Team

Senior guard James Montgomery has spent two years walking on for Northwestern, getting a grand total of 124 minutes. But new head coach Chris Collins has apparently been so taken with Montgomery's effort in practices, he called a team meeting to announce that Montgomery will be receiving a full scholarship this season.

The video also shows Montgomery calling his family to tell them the news, and it's an exciting moment. Though the scholarship is maybe more telling of the fact that the Wildcats have a scholarship to give, look at that Northwestern tuition—this is no token gesture.
