It's possible he misspoke and meant an apt not a dorm room. Also if their dining halls are like lsu's then they actually aren't open on weekends and holidays. So the story about having to go in his fridge after games could be true. That being said it's hard to imagine he couldn't afford 20 bucks a weekend to feed himself, or he could be outright lying. But to flip flop again, if I was a star college athlete id get fricking tired of penny pinching my way through 4 years of school, always having to eat at the dining hall. I'd probably take some benefits
My brother plays college baseball, and he gets a meal stipend to spend during road trips.

They are taken care of. There is no way Foster went hungry like a kid in Africa.

Well this obviously was not a road trip. I'm not saying they're starving or anything close to that. I have no doubt he's exaggerating to further his own agenda of paying players. I'm just saying I see where he's coming from in terms it must be frustrating to know you're earning Tennessee hundreds of millions of dollars and going to fricking Outback for supper one night would be a significant drain on your personal finances.
