Lots of posters forget or are just plain ignorant of the fact that poor players...and yeah, that would include poor black players...all can get almost $5,000 a year in Pell grants. In 2011, 423 football players from 8 different SEC teams received $4,600 each.

$4,600 per player.

Do you really think they're spending their Pell grants on cars? You have to pass a credit check to finance a car and when you have zero income that becomes a bit difficult.
