That is exactly what the poster appears to be stating. Seeing a college education exclusively through the two-year cost savings prism, particularly for a student-athlete capable of more, seems like a greater waste of money than the time spent showcasing the same student-athlete. Academics are a lifetime and the investment put into it determines the benefits later in life.
