I understand your objections in the first part of your reply, but let me clarify - when I speak about this, I'm talking strictly about revenue sports. The other athletes in non-revenue sports who are lucky enough to get scholarships are indeed getting a bang-up deal. But, I'm not talking about those guys. In fact, I agree with the latter part of your comment, where you say that divorcing sports and education is the long overdue solution to this problem. I personally don't believe playing sports (sports management is another thing) has anything to do with higher education. But, I also agree that it will probably never change. There's too much money at the top, and it's too easy to screw the athletes down at the bottom.
