And that in a nutshell, is the real rip-off of college "exposure" camps. The CAMPER pays for the privilege to work 2-3 times as many games as needed. All the while the "clinician" is making huge bucks off of campers who stand absolutely no chance of getting picked up. The NCAA operates like a monopoly, but the individual conferences that endorse or tolerate this camp structure are just as bad. I don't know what alternative there is...but I know there has to be a better way.
