No “secret” athletic money, Ivy League?

Re: #119 I’m not suggesting a conspiracy. Personally, I don’t believe any of the schools flout the rules surrounding athletic scholarships. My belief is based not just on the rules but on personal experience. But it wouldn’t surprise me at all if a FA estimate was recalculated following a discussion about an athletic scholarship. That doesn’t violate any rule and doesn’t mean something nefarious is going on, as estimates get changed all the time for different reasons. The only violation would be if the change had no needs-based rationale but was based on athletic talent alone. I’m not one who believes that happens, so I’d love to hear more specifics from tseliot.
