    If you ask me, any university where the highest-paid employee is the football coach or the football program is the largest recipient of school funding should be ineligible for federal funds.

    Have your football. Price gouge people for it. But our taxes shouldn’t be subsidizing it when they should be serving the purpose of educating the next generation of workers.

      What if it’s a profit center that helps pay for the important stuff? I don’t know about the colleges in question but I believe it’s true in at least some cases

      What about Community Colleges and others that don’t have a sports program?

      I’m sure there are places where the sports program is a huge waste of money, but trying to paint that as a problem for all schools is just falling for outrage media
