Apples and oranges.
AFAIK, NCAA D1 schools don't pay their athletes to play. Sure, the athletes get a free education, but IBM would do that too with employee educational programs. I also don't think that IBM will offer $1M to a 14 year old. They would likely say "call us in 4 years", or "keep in contact with us every 6 months". Or, they would have the 14-year old work for them immediately, and have private tutoring for her HS diploma.
