Universities and Athletic Departments make millions on the backs of athletes. Those same athletes are not allowed to have a job while participating in college athletics (at least at the NCAA level).

I do think that with the amount of money be made by colleges, coaches ,etc that the athletes should have additional compensation. Having said that, a lot of thought will have to go in to the process

College athletes are held to higher standards than those receiving full ride academic scholarships. In being a student-athlete they should be compensated for both. Especially as influencers.

Then the schools shouldn't get enrollment money from the state

They are there to get an education. Also will have a limited number of schools with top athletes. Sometimes it’s just about the money.

This would just make another Junior Pro Sports system.

Only if they aren't attending on a full ride scholarship.

I personally don't care, but I understand why it is important to so many. I'm embarrassed how bad our 'top tier' athletes are doing. Is this the best we have? I've seen Disney on Ice, couple of those folks surely could have been available.

Anything covered by the mainstream media is not worth paying attention to.
