There is a baseball player in our area that recently got drafted by the Boston Red Sox. This pitcher's team was in the State Finals this season and lost their first game. I did not hear anyone complaining that this kid would skip college (he had a scholarship to Arizona State waiting for him) and go right to the pros.

You may not have heard it, but I did. And, the arguments were exactly the same: "he can go back later"; "the purpose of college is to get a high paying job -- he will earn more than $1m already", etc.
