Miami Fla, UNC, Boise St on probation, USC Trojans, Oregon, Ohio St - it could go on and on.
Jordy said it best this morning, sorry all the minor sports like volleyball but basketball and football deserve to have funds that pay for incidentals or flights home to see sick parents or payment for teammates to go see a cancer stricken teammate like Mark Alcorn that Dale Brown preached to the choir about.
If an athlete needs $500 a month in incidentals that should be a priority with what these players generate in income for the NCAA and schools they play for.

You realize that 95% of athletic departments lose money. How are they going to pay their athletes $500 a month?

They ALREADY have hardship funds to cover ALL of the cost which you posted about.(up to $4,500 a year) They
also can and get Pell Grants $5,400 per year. And ALL non freshman recieve a stipend for room and board around
$1,100 to $1,400 a MONTH depending on the school.
Plua ALL get $500 clothing allowence.
Added all up and it can be up to 20K a year CASH just for
expenses. Does not included tuition and books.
