Well, we all know there are programs who push the athletes through academically and when they graduate, NWIH do they have the knowledge that you should have that goes w/ a college degree. If they get hurt and their career ends, they're toast. I guess that's the different conversation you're referring to. And really, as far as that goes, it doesn't begin and end with athletes.
I was rewatching "The U" on ESPN and the guys said that in the early 90s their weekend stipend for meals was $30. As one of the very large dudes pointed out $30 wasn't enough to feed him for a day let alone two.
