Do you really want to discuss it?

If so we can.

We are all talking about Division 1 athletes, the only athletic programs we give a shite about as a country are football and basketball. These players that we think would be getting 'funneled' money from a gofundme are all on full rides with stipends....these athletes would not be eligible because they already have a state sponsored way to funnel them all the money they need to live and thrive.


After that does any one really give a shite? Aside from it being a lesbian girl that somehow still pisses Southerners off.

Everyone wants to get worked up over nothing. The NCAA has monitored fundraisers for students in need in the past, they have rules for it. They have declared that this student is eligible to receive these funds from her fundraiser.

Are you just hateful of gofundme? What if her church did a bar b que? Would that piss you off too?

I'm sure a lawyer would be glad to put this assertion to the test in a courtroom soon.

There have been plenty of stories of football players from hard-knock and impoverished backgrounds. And I'm sure free tuition and $500/month didn't exactly put them on easy street.
