and current ACC commissioner Jim Phillips used to be quoted (generally speaking abt football, I think) stating a NU full athletic scholarship was worth $500,000 if the student athlete took a fifth year of eligibility. Do not remember any reporters balking at the number - it might be fair guess for ND too. I don't know if he was factoring in travel, meals, high-level training (weight and injury/injury prevention), etc
