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..... :-)

Rowing is a strange one because there are quite a few very serious men's rowing teams. I'm sure the primary reason it's not added for men is Title IX compliance. Lots of schools have added women's programs in rowing for that very reason.
