I think this is all annoying as I do agree that going to college should be primarily to get educated, but I do understand the desire to make money. And if I was a young idiot again I would want to get paid if I had a talent or whatever means to get paid.
If you were that age and someone wanted to pay you a bunch of money or gift you a car or something, all of it being legal, what would you do?

Supposedly yes... except it is physically impossible given the side show of time that athletics and all the marketing takes... they basically get a free pass and everyone knows it. They don't attend class MOST of the time.
2nd bolded part - yes, absolutely... as long as I wasn't at an education institution getting a free scholarship for others money.
