Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 911080, member: 652"] Here is my suggestion for cleaning all of this up. Require that college universities compensate their student athletes for the 20 hours each week they can be affiliated with the team at minimum wage a la how we all had jobs in work study. So that would be about 150 dollars a week for the kids. That is a little spending money for the athletes. Allow the Universities to pay student athletes for signing merchandize and then have the university sell that merchandize and make the money back for paying the athletes. Then any profits generated from selling the merchandize is split 50-50 by the university and athlete. Allow the athletes to return their Universities and receive free education if they leave the school without a degree. [/QUOTE]
