If you're going to make this argument, you are much better off going with football. The basketball players that are good don't even go to school for 2 full semesters and then get 3 or 4 year guaranteed contracts from the NBA. If they don't like it, they can play in Europe for a year and get drafted. The football players are the ones who really get screwed because they have to stay for 3 years and there's not really another option.
That being said, I was in Tuscaloosa recently and after seeing all the new hotels, student housing, greek houses, condos, restaurants, etc.. I can say with absolute certainty that Nick Saban is extremely underpaid for what he does and I would imagine the money Kentucky and Lexington has made since Calipari started coaching would prove he is underpaid as well.
