Lets go over this again. Don't post a link if you're not willing to give a summary of the info in the link. Also, don't post content from premium sites. Therefore, don't fucking post links to pay sites.

Per posting guidelines:

Don't copy and paste content from premium (pay-to-read) websites.

I'm giving information, so others can find information others are searching for. Without breaking guidelines. You want me to steal info and bring it back cause you think you deserve it.

I kindly decline doing that and will give websites out that further conversation whether it be premium or not. If you have nothing better to do than try and argue I will ignore you from here on out like I'm already doing with others.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone.

I do... Even if they open it up to all athletes, its still a giant 'fuck you' to the rest of the student body. Student-Athletes (for the most part) already get away with free tuition, free training, free mentoring and tutoring, free room and board (in dorms that have to include members of the regular student body to comply with Title IX) etc. If they block this kind of facility off from the rest of the student body, the ones who end up actually paying for these kind of expansions through athletic fees and eventual donations after graduation, things are going to get ugly.

No matter how you slice it, if this isn't opened up to the student body, it will be the primary arrow in the quiver for collegiate reform. It will signal the excessive spending has gotten out of control, to the neglect of the regular student body.

I completely agree. But the fact that they're even trying to make this exclusive to the football players makes me wonder 1.) who the hell is calling the shots in the athletics department, and 2) where the hell are the lawyers, who should already advised them that they can't make it football-only?

I would argue public money or student fees.

Unpopular Opinion: I think it's absolutely ridiculous that schools are able to charge students hundreds of dollars in athletics fees when the majority of students do not regularly (if at all) attend sporting events. If I didn't attend any sporting events but still had to pay athletic fees down at Clemson, this would light a fire under my ass.
