Young professional athletes don't necessarily need an education in business to stay ahead of the game as far as i'm concerened. ......thats what financial advisors and sports agents are for.
I don't know much about the University of Illinois....but I have alot of experience with D1 Athletics because I played baseball for a year in college and was heavily recruited out of high school. College coaches and athletic departments in this day and age don't care about what kind of grades you make and if you graduate. They care about you making a 2.0, staying elligable, and helping the team which helps bring in millions upon millions of dollars of revenue to the school. Sure, they want to see their kids do well and succeed......but winning __(insert sport here)___ games is their main priority......not making sure kids graduate.
