Myth that college athletes hurt for $. These guys are just clowns. Has nothing to do with the NCAA.
4 Hofstra basketball players charged with burglary, robbed coach's house also

I'm at ncc u telling me loli go to hofstra and i heard that people got robbed like crazy during hurricane sandy. SMH, school is overpriced though and there are a lot of rich snobby kids that go there who don't seem to really care about the education

at some of these responses. It's the NCAA's fault? Really? Only on NT. No rent. No tuition. Free food. Free books. Bunch of free gear. Financial Aid on top of that. Yeah these dudes must really be struggling.View media item 152765

There is so much wrong with this statement i don't even know where to begin.
If you think all the best pro basketball players come from the hood/poor i've got oceanfront property in kansas to sell to you
These dudes played at Hofstra, they weren't making their school ****
The argument college athletes should get paid is invalid for 95% of people
The Cody Zeller's, Manti Teo's, Nerlens Noel's of the world, those guys have earning power and are bringing more to schools than they are receiving in the form of a scholarship. Hofstra's starting two guard isn't

I don't know where you coming from, but your post is very disturbing. While in some caes, it's true, it still comes off with a racist overtone to me. If one player that makes the L, he is responsible for 20-30 people? You realize that person will be broke in the end most likely right? How smart do you sound saying something like that? What are you alluding to? Not all players come from poverty my man. They might not be rich, but they don't have to be responsible for that many people. Some are there for education, while some are dummies. Don't paint a broad stroke like that, and by you sayinf "College Athletes", it sounds like you are referring to basketball and football players mostly

Some of y'all are just talking just to talk...
I played college ball and some of y'all are extremely confused ...
Also, raising the stipend?
I played on 3 levels... ask me and I'll tell you the REAL deal.

... NO...in most cases, cats on the hoop squad are regular joes that just happened to be a little taller and faster, or had more handle than everyone else and they kept hooping.
yall look at dudes and see the tats, the size, and the attitude...
truth be told... take 10 cats from the football team and they'd beat the dog piss outta the hoop squad.
most of those cats that portray that tough guy nonsense are soft as tissue, famb... real life...
they scare people cuz they're so tall and big...
people are so enamoured (sp?) with POTENTIAL of the hood dudes... people think "oh, if he gets his attitude in line, he coulda went to the league"... cats that are from the hood are real emotional. they can have super up games and super down games. i've seen dudes absolutely DESTROY hood dudes w/ all the bounce, handle, and speed in the world.
the BEST players that i've came across are guys that just dont care what their teammates think about them. whether it be the hood dude or Jimmy Sanders... and the thing is, black players get FRUSTRATED when white boys torch them, leading them to play with more emotion, leading them to making more mistakes...
Also... i dont think yall know how HARD IT IS to go to the NBA... like seriously...
"hood dudes" yall think are hood are just regular guys that put on the perception of hood (gang of tats, disrespectful demeanor) but they're not...

first of all, unlv, miami and michigan are not the teams you should be calling "dominant". how about kentucky, duke (hood dudes), north carolina (more hood dudes) and kansas?
you obviously know nothing about basketball. i doubt any of the teams you mentioned are even in the top 50 for basketball wins all time. and you call them DOMINANT?!?
second, most real "hood dudes" aren't the best athletes. being from a poor area doesn't make you a "hood dude".
in closing, your post reeks of low intelligence and ignorance.
