These kids should tak on the NCAA, Everyone makes money off the system but the kids, for what???

Title IX and Equal Protection will preclude college players from ever getting paid, even if by some strange chance the NCAA got enough votes to allow it.

Under any system of being compensated, every player, regardless of gender, sport, position or playing time, would have to receive the same amount. Most schools couldn't even afford this. Even big time money schools would have a hard time. You know how many athletes they would have to pay?

The schools aren't going to vote to give up money anyway. Its not even practicle. I get a kick out of people who say they honestly believe that college players getting (legally)paid is right around the corner. It will never happen.

What I would do, is: If I owned a franchise I would recruti out of high school, train the kid at the pro arena, and put them through college, seperate from the NCAA. But then, I'm an A-hole.
