The value of a scholarship is what it would have cost otherwise to obtain that education. Whether a football player capitalizes on that is another thing.

Not quite. Free room and board with meal plan, Free travel, lodging and meals on road trips, free tudoring, free training and medical care, free clothing, access to do nothing summer jobs if you want, access to grants that most students don't have. Killer financing on cars. I'm sure there are other perks I'm forgetting that the general student population do not get.

The value of an athletic scholarship is significantly more than it would cost the average student to obtain an education.
