So why would these kids want to go to a high priced school that, on their academic merits, they couldn't get into in the first place?

They have that choice?

Personally it pisses me off that, because of their athletic ability, they are letting substandard students in and turning down qualified, yet not spectacular, students who want to be there for the education.
