Schools are being asked to disclose how much players are being paid. Most are refusing to disclose. New article in The Athletic this morning.

Out of 70 schools The Athletic requested payrolls and budgets from, only one provided the information.

[I]"The Athletic [/I]has requested payrolls and budgets from more than 70 schools since it became legal for them to pay players directly July 1. Only one — James Madison — provided a payroll with redacted names. Seven provided sport-by-sport breakdowns (football players got $1.5 million from San Diego State and $13.5 million from NC State) or aggregate figures ($11.6 million split among 536 athletes at UConn from July 1 to Dec. 31 last year). The rest have either ignored requests or denied them."
