I would think the NCAA would view this as a benefit Michigan provides to athletes that it doesn't provide to non-athlete students. It is unnecessary , so it is a benefit, and Michigan won't pay for the same benefits for non-football players. Also, I can't imagine the academic side of the house would be too thrilled with the football players missing classes, labs and exams for the 3 weeks or so while the players would be absent from campus. What about tutors and academic advisors for the players? Do they get paid to go to Florida, and where do they set up shop?
