Camron Rust mbyron wroteCamron, the numbers might not be perfect, but there's no denying that universities make millions off the backs of these "student-athletes" in football and basketball especially, while giving them virtually nothing. How many of these young scholars graduate with crap degrees in "General Studies" and the like? Puh-lease. You do realized that those "millions" are only accurate for a very small handful of universities...most of the 300+ NCAA D1 programs lose money...and what money they do make subsidizes the other 10-20 sports that lose money....particularly women's sports. Only a few of the programs, overall, are profitable. See: http://ctsportslaw.com/2008/05/22/ncaa-study-shows-that-most-athletic-programs-lose-money/
