I had not heard that, but it is not uncommon or even really rare to have parents of players (of any sport) make decent donations to the CJC. If you look at the special "name" parking spaces in the east stands parking lot, you will recognize a LOT of names, of a lot of players from all sports.
In fact, if my son or daughter did end up going somewhere with a athletic scholly in hand (no, they are not allowed to go to CSU or BYU), I would surely make a donation to up my "privledges" and show my committment.
