Message: [QUOTE="RandomGuy, post: 3120317, member: 6422"] LOL...! All this bill does is put it above board.(of course the bagmen will still pay privately) Smaller schools with no bagmen? Now those kids could make a couple bucks with appearances, not available to them before. Folks just don't want other schools gaining an advantage, or their schools to lose $$(for an advantage). The Cotton industry did not collapse after the Civil War. In fact, by 1870, the south produced more cotton than 1860. The head of the ncaa, that coined the phrase "Student Athlete" has said that the NCAA has evolved into an indentured servant system. I'm all for amateurism. I'd support a model that capped all coach salaries/employees and all spending, with no creative accounting. Give the rest to charity? Fine by me. That's amateurism. Have the schools play by the same rules as the players? Too funny. [/QUOTE]
