Yeah, tuition isn't fair at all...but they don't even have to pay it, period. An education is also supposed to be worth more than what was paid for it, too. The article was talking about pay ranges based on the schools earnings, and figured that their 'minimum' salary would be $225,000/season and the "likely" cap would be around 1.5 million. That would buy a lot of school.
While I have big problems with how sports are idolized in the country in the first place, I really am thinking that it's time to separate competitive sports out of schools. Or maybe make them start pouring 1/2 to 3/4 of their profits back INTO the school. Wonder what they could do with tuition if you had a sports program pouring millions back into the school?
Ah, well...wandering off topic.
