[QUOTE="cow451, post: 66549790, member: 308827"] This type compensation will not buy a single gallon of gas. And, there are other restrictions. The athlete is forbidden to earn money at anything, even in the off-season. The athlete is not allowed to accept a free meal from a friend or family (at a restaurant). When I played in college, one of our starters quit after his junior year because he was "tired of being poor". Like the vast majority of college football players, he did not have NFL-level talent. He got a labor job and said he was going to be a part-time student. My daughter is in a grad school on academic scholarship. She does not have time to get a side job, but she can accept any amount of cash anyone gives her, any free meal anyone will buy her and any gift someone gives her. That is a big difference. [/QUOTE]
