I know the story is a bit old but bear with me here.
Romeo Miller is a 5-foot-10 point guard with a bad knee. He has never played a full season of high-school basketball. This season, he averaged 8.6 points a game for Beverly Hills High School, which finished last in its league.
But next fall, the 18-year-old will suit up for the University of Southern California, a program in the tough Pac-10 conference. And he will receive a full basketball scholarship valued at $44,400 a year.
The scholarship, which is the talk of college recruiters, is a perfect L.A. story, intermingling money, show business and basketball. Besides being an average point guard, Mr. Miller is an actor and singer known as Lil' Romeo, and the son of a wealthy music mogul. Some question whether the Millers took advantage of their resources -- and their relationship with Demar DeRozan of Compton, Calif., one of the top high-school basketball players in America -- to win the scholarship over more talented and less privileged athletes.

Doesn't this anger anyone else, especially people my age who are college students?
I dont think he should get it, I remember way back not sure what TV show was it, but his dad Masters P was on some show and he went outside with some gym shoes on and got back inside his house, and then he threw them in garbage and he was like stating the fact that he has soo much money he could buy million of shoes! But yeah WTF he shouldnt get a scholarship his daddy has money tons of money WTF, scholarships should only be for poor people or people who cant pay stupid rules...
