Xenophobia in "ACC Basketball Today"?

A couple of weeks ago the weekly FSN program "ACC Basketball Today" had a segment on international players making an impact in the ACC and whining that they are now up to 10% of basketball student-athletes and they are "taking away scholarships". Of course they failed to mention that thousands of US-born college basketball players (who do not make it to the NBA) play professionally all over the world when they graduate, a lot of them making nice six figures, a number of them making high six figures in the top leagues, and in many cases their income is tax-free.
