Perhaps a different perspective... If your goal is to get into the NFL and they won't draft you out of high school your choices are limited. You can either play Arena Football and PRAY that you get to go NFL someday or you can go to NCAA football. You might not go to school looking to get a diploma but you might end up getting millions of $ because you went to college. You'll end up a better person (at least in your line of work) and you'll recieve a top-notch education (in your chosen career field).

If you can make six, seven or 8 figures immediately after or within a few years of graduating college because they taught you to play a sport I say that's just as legitimate as receiving an academic education.
