Message: [QUOTE="Stymie, post: 4379847, member: 11176"] I believe that exchanging an athletic scholarship to a scholar athletes in return for: Free tuition Free housing Free meals Health Insurance ALL tools required for classroom success - tutors, special instruction, one on one if needed. Off campus contact with industry leaders in their chosen fields (mentoring). Post graduate studies ( if desired) Post graduate placement in chosen field , when qualified. Is a fair proposition. For most players N.I.L. money will be negligible and a pro career will be a pipe dream. Not enough emphasis is put on an athlete’s future once playing eligibility expires. For it to be an equitable transaction- the institution should be responsible to the athlete for much more than a degree and a sayonara. For all the time and effort the athletes put in, the institution responsibilities should continue well after graduation. JMHO [/QUOTE]
