Xavier's Sweet Sixteen team's center is Matt Stainbrook. He's 6' 10", drives for Uber, and
is working on his MBA;
"My little brother's a walk-on on the team, and he's doing undergrad
classes right now while I'm doing my grad school in my fifth year. Grad
school costs about $14,000 a year while undergrad costs about $43,000 a
year. So, for me to be on scholarship and only using it for $14,000
didn't make sense to me. So, I talked to the compliance people, and they
said I'd be able to switch my scholarship with my little brother, so I
ended up doing that.
"And in order to pay my bills, I needed a flexible job, something to
do to make some money, and I saw someone Uber-ing one day, and I said,
'Hey, you know, that's probably something I can do. I have a car, I can
drive.'"
And he could explain
Uber's surge pricing to his customers, we're willing to bet.
