Many of these guys are getting a free education at major universities, about a $40,000 value even at an inexpensive school if you are out of state. It also gives them a shot at going into the pros if they do well, a minimum salary of a couple of hundred grand there. What other students at these schools get opportunities near that sweet?My beef with some of the universities is that they don’t take that revenue that is earned from football and put it back into the school so they can lower tuition for those who have to pay to be there. They build state of the art workout rooms and other nonsense that also benefits these football players.
