112mm/98 = That's $1.142 million per player and only roughly 85 get scholarships

85*35k per year is only 2.97mm annually in scholarship "cost". I'm hardpressed to get even close to saying these guys are "paid" by getting scholarships.

Give them the choice of a fair share of the gross revenue from their sport OR a scholarship. Their choice. The proof in value will be in what they choose.
