At NCAA Convention, Power Five Approve Full Cost Of Attendance

The Power Five conferences at yesterday's NCAA convention in Maryland "embraced new authority to provide unprecedented benefits for athletes, including the passage of a rule that will increase the value of athletic scholarships to pay for the full cost of attendance." The conferences sponsored a joint resolution on "modernizing the collegiate model" and the proposal to "pay full cost of attendance." Those proposals "passed overwhelmingly, by votes of 78-1 and 79-1, respectively." Boston College voted against "each issue." The nearly unanimous passage "was celebrated with light applause" (USATODAY.com, 1/17).
