How is this not an improper benefit? Is it offered to all student athletes who have the chance to make a living as a professional athlete? Seems a bit fishy. Kudos to the Ducks.

The school with a $100,000,000 football practice facility that makes Alabama's look low class and a former coach who spent over $30,000 paying a scout for outdated information "gets it"?

Oregon has literally the best program money can buy since it certainly doesn't coast on history or tradition. Wish we had been able to pay for a policy to lure MCW back for another year.

i thought the numbers have shown the policy is pretty much worthless as written?

Whatever happened to the NCAA rule allowing players to get a loan to pay for the premium. That seems like a intelligent compromise. The kid doesn't receive any real benefit from it unless he gets injured.
