I've seen students with little talent get a full ride, at least for a while. I've also seen students with so-so talent get a full ride, lose interest, and eventually leave the school.
Me? I got maybe $200 per year. They knew I wasn't planning on going anywhere soon, so they didn't have to compete with other schools to try to buy my talent. Guess what, though -- I'm getting paid to play.
