I disagree. They do a good job of producing people with science, programming, engineering, and mathematics
degrees.
The practical experience that students learn by working
with the mentors on a real life problem -- with real life constraints -- helps produce people who are good at those professions.
To another point discussed here: Losing is inspiring to some. Winning is inspiring to others. A good coach can make either inspiring to his/her team.
