Let’ face it, they were admitted (most of them, anyway) only because of their athletic abilities. They are given spam courses for four years, just to keep them in the system so they’re eligible to play.
Many end up graduating from schools that put athletics first and can barely spell their own names. (Remember Dexter Manley?) They are sitting it out, waiting for a call from the NFL.
And it’s all sponsored by idiot alumni who fund the athletic programs rather than any scientific research. Those funds would far better be spent on academically rather than athletically gifted students.
ED before we castigate all of college sports, the true argument is made that it funds academia.
These players know it but if they decide to eliminate their participation, they also know that they will be eliminated.

Absolutely...let’s give the money to science students so they can grow up to promulgate notions such as Anthropological Global Warming...
