Only 1 out of every 168 white men is a scholarship football or basketball player across Division 1. At Wisconsin, Stanford, and Kansas, to name a few, that ratio for black men is 1 in 7. At Vanderbilt and Duke, 1 in 5. At Oregon, Gonzaga, and Notre Dame, 1 in 4. At Villanova and Texas Christian, it is 1 in 3, and at Utah, every other black male is a scholarship football or basketball player.

At MSU, 5.1% of the black males on campus are scholarship athletes.

Good for them. A free education is something many people would love to have.

I would suggest it's not free. Both sides give something, both get something.

Pity they don't have anybody to hang out with who isn't an athlete.  Wonder why that is.

"So many people say they're getting a free college education, but there's nothing about that education that's free," Booty said. "The average athlete puts 40 hours a week in blood, sweat and tears into their sport. On top of that, they're bringing hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue in. They're the product. They're what people are coming to see."

This is true for the revenue sports - but the reality is that those sports provide the scholarships for Track, Women's BB, Wrestling, Soccer, Baseball, etc, etc. And yes I know that all athletes put in extra hours but they are getting a benefit for it.
