That's not the model I described. My model is the same one used for graduate students.
"There is some irony in the fact that Northwestern is Ground Zero for a push to be compensated beyond a scholarship, since the school offers the most expensive full-cost of attendance in the league, if not the nation, at $63,000 for the 2013-14 school year." That's a lot of coupons.
Me too. The non-engineering, paid graduate students. Your history, english, sociology grad students who are paying their own way.
Where are you getting this "PH model of fair worth" from?
My only point is that if we're going to pay student-athletes, let's use an existing model for paying them.

I just looked up the definition of the word "pay" and it includes the word "money."
What? Sociology and History graduate students, at least, get paid.
Sorry dude, you have lost this argument if you don't associate tuition et al with money. Honestly, it's beneath your usual reasoned arguments.
Hmm, guess you went to a different school than myself and my friends who were in non-STEM masters programs. Even engineering masters students don't get paid in most institutions.

If you showed up for work tomorrow and your boss said, "Skydog, I'm going to stop paying you money. Instead, I'm going to let you take some classes and give you books and I'll throw in some sneakers, too," you'd walk back out.
