‘23 CA QB Nicholaus Iamaleava (Tennessee)

Kids want it all right now. Much growth takes place between the ages of 18 and 22. I fear many players are being fed a bill of goods at the expense of their college education. No player should live in poverty, but there should be healthy oversight to ensure the integrity of the sport as well as the proper development of student-athletes.

They never did live in poverty. Free Housing and Free Food. Better deal that most ..............

Maurice Couch would probably disagree. The vast majority of collegiate players have little monetary assets.

Vast majority of college aged students don't

And most "regular" students graduate with $100K $35-45K in student-loan debt.

With a means of hopefully paying it off.

Scholarship athletes don't have that debt..............and a degree to help them get a job and start making money immediately......

Oregon

Nope

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

As soon as Oregon ponies up the Ca$h

You mean as soon as he picks TN

National avg is closer to $32,000. Very highly specialized students accrue debt around the 100k mark like med students who's given salary equal it out as far as paying it back.
Edit: honestly if I was going to be a doctor I'd enlist my services in the military. They pay the debt and with special pay due to being doctors you're still going to be near or above the 6 figure salary.

Not following your logic here… they’re getting the same education as non athletes, but without the debt

On the surface, maybe. In reality.. no.

How many millions does a regular student make for the school? For those on academic scholarship, how much does the school make in concessions off of them? Typical perspective from someone like you.

 

[UTK]

I really think this kid plays in the SEC. So us or Bama still.

 

[ACvol3]

On the surface, maybe. In reality.. no.

Why not? Are you saying they take bs classes because the workload would be too much?

"Someone" like me? And you know what about me?

 

[SSVol]

On the surface, maybe. In reality.. no.

But that is a limitation of the player, not availability. Pretty sure they can get degrees that are just as solid as those of us who paid for them.

Iamleava this right here. Kid is WC bound.

Here? Permanently?!? Ew.

Western Carolina? Bold strategy…

Only to go home during the breaks.

Great skiing and proximity to the casino. I’m getting my daughter a brochure for sure.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Obviously nothing is guaranteed, but I’d be shocked if it wasn’t us honestly.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

This kid is a Vol.

 

[SugarCC]

VERY NICE!!!
