$5980 would be a pay cut for Bama and UGA players anyway. Probably not enough players would qualify for academic incentives to even worry about it so other funding will continue to take care of the players and more importantly, it's not tracked. At this point, none of their players must be complaining.
Uof7C signed up for the program but they probably will return the left over funding (lack of qualifiers) back to the school to provide batteries and water bottles to the endzone students.
