One might argue that the daily routines of P5 football players are really a very generous stretching of the term student-athlete.

Could not disagree with this more.

People care about UNC basketball because its the team of the University of North Carolina. It's their team. Some people are even fans of the team without having ever taken a single credit at the school.
