You see that new California bill that is being proposed that would required their universities to share 50% of the their revenue with the athletes?

If most athletic departments are in the red, then will those be sending the athletes a bill?

Key word is revenues. This legislation sounds like it ignores the expense side of things.

Another dagger in the back of women's sports.

Free?

Walk a week in a student athletes shoes and you'll never say that again.

Nothing free about it.

I've never understood the *****ing by college athletes. Having done it, it's a damn amazing thing to do

The victimhood of some of the athletes or their mouthpieces is pretty amazing.

Of course. Who wouldn't take some money? It's the whoa is meness that i find most entertaining.

It's called bartering.

Gold, I'm talking about financially, not effort wise. Please explain what a full scholarship Baylor athlete has to pay for out of their own pocket while at Baylor. I'm sure your info would be enlightening.

We don't have to agree.

It's a full time job…the athletes are compensated through reimbursement on their billing with a credit that makes their amount owed $0.

So, the full time athletes have Zero financial costs for literal Years. They pay nothing for their healthcare, food, apt, books, tuition, fees totaling $300,000 or more, while being treated like Royalty. Man, what a terrible deal. The suffering they have to endure must be awful.

Your royalty comment tells me all I need to know about you, and your view of student athletes, and the compensation in the form of a scholarship they receive for their work on the field of competition.

I totally respect and appreciate all of Baylor's student athletes, Gold. Sincerely. I'm old school, and think what current athletes are already compensated highly.

So how about if a coach gets a $2M bonus for his kids making the playoff, the school gives him $2M in free education? I'm sure they'd be happy with that.

Wasn't Dabo supposed to quit if the players got paid? When are we gonna see that resignation letter?

Coaches and players are an apples and oranges comparison.

Dabo Swinney Clarifies NIL Stance; 'Not Everybody Does Much Research'
Tuesday Swinney stated that previous comments regarding the NIL were taken out of context and went on to clarify the statement and his stance.

• JUL 20, 2021

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney was asked for his opinion concerning his previous comments regarding paying players for their name, image and likeness during his first in-person media availability since April of 2020.
In 2019, Swinney said that he may as well quit coaching college and move to the NFL if players in college were ever paid. But Tuesday he stated that those comments were taken out of context and went on to clarify the statement and his stance.
"We live in a world now where not everybody does much research. You go in the bathroom and hear somebody on the phone in the third stall and that's your source. Just calling it like it is," Swinney said. "And that's the headline. I think people hear what they want to hear, and then unfortunately a lot of people write what they want to write to fit the story that they need. And it's just not accurate. I've never had a problem with name, image and likeness. I think it should have been more. If I'd have been the czar, I'd have done it differently, because I don't think everybody's gonna have much opportunity with it. Some will. But not everybody will have opportunity.
"I would have liked to have seen it tied to graduation, education. … What I said, whenever that was, I still say. I am against professionalizing college athletics where we get away from the collegiate model and the value of a degree and the value of an education. I've never, ever said I'm against name, image and likeness. I think it's a lot of common sense. I think it could be more. I think it could be tied more to the education process so everybody would have had a little more opportunity. I said that, whenever it was, but people hear what they want to hear.

California is trying to kill college athletics. Whether intentional or not doesn't matter, that will be the result if that becomes law.

Again, thanks to the admins for taking out the garbage.

Anyone who thinks athletes are getting a free education is clueless to the effort it takes to play a sport in college.

Anyone who dismisses the value of an education never had to pay for their degree and are equally clueless.

Most college degrees are worthless

100%. People are going to get sick of dropping a bag on some kids who will transfer schools within a year. I'm pretty sure TAMU lost the majority of that #1 class they had

Yeah, look at Ohio State and Qunin Ewers. Dumped $1.4m and then after 1 year he heads to Texas.

What would people here prefer? With the B1G and SEC about to start taking in huge amounts of money over the other conferences on an annual basis, the cat is out of the bag - even in a scenario where schools would have to share money with players, the financial discrepancy between those conferences and everyone else would continue to be a game changer and such a change would be merely reconfiguring the problem instead of solving it in a meaningful way.

Sorry, but with a free ride at a school with our cost, student athletes are far from "oppressed."
