Should the NCAA Allow Hardship Funds For Student Athletes?
By now most people have probably heard the story of Clemson DB Ray Ray McElrathbey. Ray Ray decided to become the guardian of his 12-year old brother Fahmar. Their father has dropped out of their lives and their mother has a recurring drug problem. In a bold move the NCAA lifted its prohibition against allowing extra funds to athletes in order to set up a trust fund for Fahmar. The NCAA made the right move here, but it is important to recognize the fact that there are many other student athletes that suffer from other hardships as well. Should the NCAA allow hardship funds to be opened by universities for their student athletes?
