4 year scholarship at U of M worth over 100 thousand dollars. Not including books, housing and other such items. After graduating from the school and being able to get a "nice" job and being able to say you went to a top 20 school in this country....please tell me how much more should be given to them?
I had to work full time while in school to pay for the CC I went to and had to pay for my apartment, car, etc. I would have killed to be offered a scholarship like the one they are recieving. It is not my fault if they do not take full advantage of what is being given to them because they run fast and tackle well.
If you do not think that the players on the teams do not care about being #1 you are being a little delusional.
I have one other problem. About the school work issue....basketball goes from Nov-April. Kids miss finals because they are off in some tournament in Hawaii or some nice place and what about all the games they play during the week and the time away from school then....why does no one say anything about this? Football Sept-Dec=4 months. BB Nov-April=4 months and tell me who misses more class time during the four months?
