Let's not. The NCAA takes advantage of its athletes. Ridiculously so, in fact. UofL claimed, two years ago, they were the most profitable program in the NCAA, making $55 million. That did not take into account jersey and merchandise sales (a multi-million dollar enterprise based almost exclusively off the backs-- pardon the pun-- of athletes who get no pay, but are expected to work (60 hours a week), travel, and keep up their studies, and never get in trouble.
Sure, the profitable programs take care of those that aren't so profitable, but why should that be? The university should take care of these "classes", as that is their stated purpose.
