We've all heard the story of a low-income kid gifted an education through an athletic scholarship - some say it's the defining narrative of college sports. But what if I told you that narrative was a lie?
At every step of the process, from recruitment to acceptance, college sports disenfranchise poor athletes. Sports today have become a pipeline for wealthy high schoolers with bad grades, at the expense of more deserving, more diverse students.
