Message: [QUOTE="orangenirvana, post: 1735230, member: 156"] I think as more and more people continue to see the light with regard to college 'amateur' athletes, things will improve. In a just world, players would be able to individually benefit financially (endorsements, agents). I would go one (or more) further and consider them college employees - be paid as such and not have academic requirements. I'd like to see a system where NBA teams can draft a player and the player can return to his college team similar to hockey. All of this would be considered "extreme" yet I only see upside from a quality-of-the-game standpoint. Not to mention it's a more humane and decent system that doesn't require denials and head-in-the-sand thinking. [/QUOTE]
