Message: [QUOTE="RandygoCuse, post: 2355198, member: 1231"] It's important to remember that these kids do not play in a free market. The NCAA has a disproportionate share of the best coaches, facilities, and TV market. In any other industry, they would not be allowed to dominate as much as they do and players would be in a much better position to negotiate. I'm also reminded of a job I had where I met a kid that played football for a Division 1 school. He got injured playing and they took away his scholarship. This kid sacrificed his body for the school and was not entitled to any workers comp because the he was not an employee. Yes, they can get a loan for an insurance policy but this is hardly the same thing. I think the NCAA knows exactly what it's doing and that it's time for a change. [/QUOTE]
