Looks like the number of foreign athletes taking scholarship money away from home grown kids has surged in recent years. 2/3rds are in Division I schools.
I wouldn't dream of accusing lazy coaches who don't recruit well of using "hired guns" from other countries to win championships. I'm sure they are only accepting foreign athletes for the altruistic good of helping to diversify the student body..... :-)

Lets use the Euro professional sports model....maximum of two foreign swimmers per team
That used to be the rule in socccer for example - but no more - the German League had team last year that put 11 foreign players on the field.
