Still surprises me how many wealthy parents don't do it to make the team better.


I see what you are saying but that's like saying why does Lebron make $30MM a year when he could take the league minimum and make his team better. A lot of the time its because they can and because they deserve/earned it

And maybe the school thinks it can hit up the parents for a big contribution down the road.

Hell,we used up a scholarship on Leebern's son in the 80's.

Snoop Dog's son got a scholarship to UCLA and Denzel's son received a scholarship to play at Morehouse.
