I think it can be a good thing, though I'd agree that the way it is right now, it isn't a good thing.
I liked this defense of DIII (and this vision for college sports):

- UweSchmidt 13y agoThe article you linked vaguely hints at the role of a coach, helping in areas outside of sports (study habits, motivation, team building) Sounds good. I propose having more real tutors and assistant teachers to get the mentioned benefits directly. Practice team building in, say, engineering competitions. If you want to offer sports, don't just have an elite team in one of the big sports (telling people they are not good enough to take part, putting people into a spectator role, giving them artificial entities to root for), but offer a wide variety of popular stuff for the whole student body.
