[QUOTE="GTRX7, post: 271085, member: 1045"] Just to raise one point, specifically with respect to college football and basketball athletes, I think it is less about changing kids in this generation as it is about changing circumstances around the kids. With exponentially increasing recruiting budgets, elite camps, extravagant campus visits, scouts, ballooning pro contracts, and social media, I think these kids get raised to believe that they are undeniably, unique stars that have earned respect and deserve to be catered to and pampered. Given the entourage surrounding these kids (many without a strong home life), it is no surprise these particular kids feel entitled and frustrated when told they are just another team player that is going to be forced to compete for and earn their spot. I think that was part of CPJ's point as well. [/QUOTE]
