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..... :-)

I'm not real sure but I think the only sport that men compete in on the collegiate level that isn't controlled by the NCAA is rowing. Which oddly is one of the first sports colleges competed in here in the States.
It always amazed me also is how expensive it is to have just one person let alone 8 or 30.
