Some of them pick their school because of the uniform design and what company makes them. To an 18 year old, $500 difference between schools can seem like a lot.

It matters a lot for BYU. If BYU paid $1,800 it would not look good.

I don't disagree with the concept that it will be less of a factor than we think

Big time programs pay less over the table, because their players get a lot more

In Salt Lake it's called, "Mr. Eccles would like to meet you."

The evil side of me wishes that were true. I think you are wrong.

It will for lower socioeconomic kids. For a lot of kids every cent matters.

I think it will be a lot bigger deal for the olympic sports.

I think the opposite is true. Most Olympic sports have proportional scholarships
