Yes, there's a lot of time spent on athletics, probably close to 40 hours a week. But to say they can't get a good education is bullshit.
    What sport did they play?

    That's great for them, but that is more an exception than the norm. Especially in football/basketball.

    ETA- not to mention a lot of guys can't pursue the major they want to because classes conflict with their athletic schedules.
