Atlantic Coast Conference Stipends

Dabo is right. What's next "Come to UCLA and we'll put you in a movie."
 
I do like hearing that Wake was transparent in our dealings.
 
Hey Mack. Thanks for posting this. I had no idea what was paid.
 
Shocking! Louisville was at the top of the list for what they paid their athletes.

This is just counting above board compensation. Though I would much rather see student athletes get the cash than building a laser tag arena on campus.
 
Love UNC's individualized payment, sounds a lot like their academic programming.

You do what you can do to have an advantage. This money won't last forever. Right now they are on top of the football world and we are all in an arms race. We are all spending millions and millions at our universities to get more students & more athletes. It is what it is.
 
It's amusing that for Dabo a "wrong reason" to take a job is where you can make the most money.
