re: Kirby gets it It's what scares me too

What college athlete at power 5 schools are struggling to make it through college
everything is taken care of for them from academic tutors to cafeteria spreads that caters to the athlete, all of that costs money
Despite what you hear, college athletes are not starving on campus or hurting for anything that they need with the resources schools put into it

The only additional money they should get is enough to fly home in an emergency or over a holiday where their sport is not playing
Or money earned from autographs or something like that or is really wrong if a restaurant owner comps their meal every once in awhile
