Lots more people will tell them they aren't good enough and to give up on that and be realistic.

No one plays major league sports to "supplement" their income, professional athletes get paid millions, and if they invest their money well would never have to work a day in their lives, even if their career is short. A major league career might be a longshot, but for every player who makes it to the major leagues, there are hundreds more who had a college scholarship. It's not unreasonable for an athlete to get a college scholarship, and free college is a nice supplement.
