Free tuition, fees, room and board at Syracuse is a BIG deal.   I said it, so someone does say it whether you believe it or not.   Once again, anyone who minimizes the value of a scholarship probably didn't pay tuition for a student at SU within the last week.

I also believe players should be able to capitalize on their name, image and likeness.   And, I believe there should be other types of compensation for college athletes; health benefits that extend beyond a player's time in school is one.  Many of the injuries sustained by players last for several years if not a lifetime.

And, yes, people do also say [I]free tuition may not be an equal transfer of value for men's hoops and football[/I].  I also don't disagree with that statement.  But most of those people don't mention that free tuition may [I]exceed the value[/I] of other sports like soccer, track, softball etc...  or that many college athletic departments actually lose money each year.
