And just to clarify it bit-
a free ride to a university (athletic scholarship) is about $30k a semester.
Much closer to $55k to $60k a semester. The medical insurance alone, no co-pays, full payment plan (no out of pocket expenses) that the scholarship athletes enjoy, is a cost prohibitive item to most students. That would come out of the walk-ons pocket. Ouch.

It's not like you're gonna say "come to LSU and we'll give you half a mil in spending cash, a new car of your choice, and a good condo in an upscale complex", and if he wants the best health insurance you say "nope, too rich for my blood".
