These guys are getting far more than a college education.

The bubble is going to burst regardless of whether these Missouri football players walk or not. Schools are finding it harder to make money, prices are rising above what the average person can afford. It's going to fall apart in a few years.
The "student athlete" is a myth. At most schools, these kids get academic waivers, some get cars, money, clothing, etc. It's semi pro ball masquerading as a collegiate program.
