Very much so. I get the standard 50% up to 6% of your salary. I contribute 6% and company puts in 3%.


This is how ours works as well but I do contribute the max allowable. The nice thing about my employer is that my match goes in every pay period.

Yet, it is. 2 out of 14 were portal players. Simmons and Judkins.

Ohio State also has had zero scholarship players enter the spring portal. That is the more impressive stat to me.

Maybe not dressing like you're going into a war zone while carrying the gun outside of a case?

Yeah, SDV is so far out there that his reading comprehension skills are gone. He'd rather just think that he can read peoples minds.
