I plan on seeing Alabama and Florida play but my brother lives in florida and the flight is only 300.00 but when you add hotel, rental car etc...it does get expensive for the families of players.
I see your point....but as a Parent, if my son/daughter had a full ride to a major college in any sport, the true blessing would be in the education they would be receiving and getting to play the sport they love would be a plus (not if the family is in attendance the majority of the games). Just me!!
