Report says the average college football player is worth $178,000

Men's college basketball players were worth far more than football players at $375,000. However, it's a figure that's misleading on its own. There are far fewer basketball scholarships (13) than football scholarships (85), so basketball players are getting a much bigger piece of the pie.

Unsurprisingly, the report says Johnny Manziel would have been the most valuable college football player in 2012 with an estimated value of $547,000. Andrew Wiggins' value to the University of Kansas during the 2013-2014 college basketball season was cited at roughly $1.6 million.
