Paying the players is a stupid idea. They get a scholarship that is worth tens of thousands of dollars per year and the opportunity to get a free education. If that isn’t enough compensation and the player isn’t interested in an education, they are free to go overseas and play basketball until they are eligible for the NBA draft.

If they do start paying the players like they are employees of the university, that’s fine as long as they treat them like employees in every way. The players earn a salary and then they pay taxes on that earned income. They pay for their room and board, their meals, and their insurance premiums. Their tuition and books are still free, but they pay taxes on the value like a regular salaried employee would a bonus.

Wait..is this article trying to tell me that when big money gets involved...people exploit it?

Glad it's basketball... a good, wholesome sport like football, run by the ****ing mob, would never fall to that level of corruption.

You tin-foil ****os need to shut up...NFL is Jesus' sport....and the military's too...only they kill 100,000's of thousands of innocent people for the bankers. Jesus hated the bankers...I'm so confused.

I think it would have to be weighted in some fashion relative to that sports revenue pull. But it is a complicated situation for sure.

College basketball and football are minor league professional sports played by minor league professional athletes in a billion dollar industry, except the schools and coaches get paid millions while the players get paid thousands.

It's time to call it what it is and get rid of this amateurism and non-profit status bullshit.

I think you could start by letting the players get paid for endorsements while in college.

I'm skeptical that anything will happen with this. NCAA basketball is a huge revenue machine. Without the five majors there is no March Madness and that's huge money. Money always wins.

Don't get me started on Kansas Jayhawk fans. The absolute worst fans. EVER!

Probably the most corrupt sport there is outside of cycling and boxing.
