1. Didn't catch that the 1st time around. That is distasteful.

2. Insurance is always not needed - until it is. That's the nature of insurance.

3. We'll probably end up agreeing to disagree on this one. "Coerce" means you're somehow removing the choice from the athlete. I didn't get that sense. I got that they were removing a worry about the future from the equation.

4. Almost no chance? That's kind of a bold assumption. You're assuming that a pro environment will be better for development, discounting a year of college education and social growth (big difference between college and the pro life), and basic maturity. If you look at it straight dollars - it's at best a wash - but there's more to life than cash. Some guys are happier in college as young men than the traveling, all-business, etc. That also discounts the parents choice too - some want a new house and others want to see their kids get their education.

If you risk is removed or mitigated from an endeavor you're on the fence about, why is it wrong to then choose that? Tipping the scales is not dirty - using other students $, is.
