The stupidity of your comment isn't even worth a response because you know not what you speak. You hear people throw out shite and you get mad because you think football players are getting $120k a year. You're not going to get what I say because you're feeble mind is already made up.

It is ridiculously cheap to go to southern universities. It is cheaper to send my 4 year old to UF, including tuition, room, board, transportation than to send her to daycare.

[link=(Cost to attend UF )]https://www.sfa.ufl.edu/basics/cost-of-attendance/[/link]
It costs $20,000/year to attend UF. Half of the expense is housing, food and transportation. 90% of UF students receive financial aid. The majority of students in need receive over $11,000 in aid, over half the cost to attend. So most UF students pay ~$9k A YEAR to attend. Or ~$750/month.

The average college athlete will spend 33 hours a week on their sport. Do the math.

Here's the kicker. If that student didn't go to college, they would still be paying to eat, sleep and drive a car. People have to pay living expenses even if they don't go to college. Who do you know that can live at home on ~$750/month?

I know of no one that dropped out of UF because they couldn't afford it. No one.

Now if you want to talk about going to Southern Cal where their tuition is ~$50k a year, you might have a point.

The stupidity of my comment? Listen jackass, an out of state degree for most of those kids is going to be around $120,000. If you're too stupid to see that then I can't help you.

And it is not ridiculously cheap to go to college at southern universities. Most are going to cost you at least $40,000 to get a degree. Those at UF who receive academic scholarships which I highly doubt that most of those who play football at UF would be able to get if it's anything like the Hope Grant in Georgia.

You know of no one who dropped out of UF because they couldn't afford it? shite, I have former students who drop out of UGA, KSU, GSU and others each year because they can't afford it. You must have had a sheltered, privileged life at UF.
