I am not claiming that my numbers are totally accurate but at SU FB gets free tuition and room and board. Since they also have a team table I believe they can get some $  back on board. I sure there are many other freebies, but one must not forget a very robust tutoring program and healthcare. 
Add this up and it is probably 70K or more. I played in the band (we also practiced) and did not get as much as a 4 oz bottle of valve oil. If these kids are getting such a raw deal no one is forcing them to stay or come to any school.
For those who’s interest is only a chance to be seen by the NFL and make some $ playing, there should be an NFL LITE  league. Max time you can be in it is 3 years and whatever happens you are out and good luck in life.
Start really paying these kids and it will kill college football as we know it. But of course we could go to no football scholarships and play if you can make the team. Athletically it would be worse, but if all teams equal it might be just as fun.
