The NCAA sucks...but it's a pretty transparent transaction.   "Hey, kid, do you want access to all of this great stuff we have, free food, practice facilities, you'll be a god on campus, and on top of that you'll get a free education in exchange for playing a sport for us?"  I mean, nobody makes them do it...it's not anyone's fault that their chosen profession doesn't make it easy for them to jump straight from High School into the professional ranks.

Is it cheating the dude that comes up with some great idea for a company because he chose to work for $50,000 a year salary, that eventually turns into a $5,000,000 a year profit-generator?  Should he get his "share?"

I don't know.  I'd pay the kids, but I get why they don't too.  Where does it stop?  Nobody is prohibiting anybody, like Lavar Ball from coming up with alternatives, can they make money though?  Does ANYONE care about these kids without the Universities attached to them?  Nope.  Not really.
