College students aren't getting paid in $$$ instead in "scholarship opportunities" because of this they get trapped in bad situations.Speak of the devil...this just popped up on my FB feed: https://people.com/sports/wisconsin-track-star-family-speaks-out-after-suicide-launches-foundation/
College coaches exploit players by threatening to take away scholarships or making it so hard on the players they leave. Then bam, suddenly they have a scholarship funds available for a new player.
This is why I say that scholarships are a scam. They're not $$$ because they're not transferrable + if the college chooses to take them away you're screwed into paying full levels of tuition.
