Message: [QUOTE="intlzncster, post: 2593495, member: 56"] As participants, kids and families are definitely at fault, but my personal feeling is that I hold next to nothing against them in that regard. If a kid comes from nothing, even a couple thousand is a huge deal for them. That said, from simply a moral perspective, if a family member extracts money without the kid's knowledge, thereby putting the his college career at risk, I do have a problem with that. Probably a matter of ROI (lack thereof). I'm sure it happens to some degree, but the money at stake is so limited, I'm skeptical anybody bothers. Shoe companies don't make enough off the pros to warrant investment. All but 2 or 3 WCBB schools lose money. I think the most likely scenario is some booster who is into WCBB may dip their toe in the water for their own personal enjoyment. Maybe there's a little bit going on, but it's not remotely worth the hassle of looking into. [/QUOTE]
