Message: [QUOTE="Hoo's That, post: 1757718, member: 3609"] You guys are starting to sound an awful lot like the elder John Thompson (How's THAT for an insult!). He was incensed that the bball TV money was going to the non-revs. That's right. Those billions that the NCAA make pay the meal and travel money of the MLax and WLax teams in the NCAAT. And for D-2 swimmers. And D-3 field hockey players. The money that the individual schools get goes toward their non-rev' expenses. I'm sorry. I have less than no sympathy for them whatsoever, and I'll lose even more when I look at the bill I'm about to get from my son's college. Sadly, for most of them, if it wasn't for sports, they'd have to do real work for a living. As it is, most of them have an ego that says they'll be part of the miniscule number that makes the pros for a career, rather than having to rely on a degree for a job. Yeah, right. [/QUOTE]
