scholie was 28K at Iowa state, cost of of attendance was 30K the pell avg was 4k.. "

That's an average of $4,442 per recipient beyond his full athletic scholarship, which includes tuition, room and board, and books." what other things do they have to pay for?

I went to college 5 years.. I saw Zero movies off campus, never ate a dinner off campus unless I went home. I never went and bought clothes during the school year.   What Kids want and what Kids need is no different for athletes and non athletes. They dont need to go out 2-3 times a week, they dont need new clothes every week and they dont need pizza every night..

The issue is that Pell is for about 30% of the kids at most of these big time places..

the cost of attendance is seen as only  a 1-3K thing for a student. you can earn that 1k making $7 for 20 hrs in 8 weeks in a summer job.
