Colludes in regards to the value of scholarships.
Athletes have to pay the difference between their scholarship value and the actual cost of attending.
I had no idea this happened, so very enlightening. Does this happen at ISU? Wondering what JP and CPR's thoughts are on it. Maybe Chris can bring it up next time he interviews or talks to with one or the other?
Lawsuit asserts NCAA 'colludes' to cap value of athletic scholarships
"Lawyers for a former West Virginia running back have proposed a class-action suit against the NCAA and the five power conferences, alleging that the Association violated antitrust laws by placing a cap on the value of athletic scholarships, which was below the actual cost of attending schools, Alabama.com reported. Essentially, the suit claims that there are out-of-pocket expenses that aren’t covered by a full scholarship."
The gist of the suit:
"The suit seeks to reverse NCAA rules that prohibit an extra stipend for athletes while also recovering damages for the expenses athletes were forced to pay when their scholarships didn’t cover everything under the cost of living."
