Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3127935, member: 652"] The United States handles youth athletics completely different than Europe or the rest of the world. In Europe the professional teams have academics for young athletes. They pay for their training and education. The team gives them everything and they own your rights till your 18. In the US the professional sports leagues don’t have academies. Since baseball is exempt from anti-trust they do the minor league system. Canada has junior hockey leagues. The NCAA is all about protecting colleges from cost certainty and be a free minor league for the other major revenue sports. Non revenue sports and revenue sports should be regulated differently just like the P5 has autonomy. [/QUOTE]
