Message: [QUOTE="UnknownOrange, post: 2153543, member: 4689"] Here's the big picture to me if you allow boosters to pay whatever they want to athletes. The best ranked players will go to public universities or universities with the biggest amount of booster dollars behind it. That means schools like Syracuse will struggle to keep competition teams on the floor, which means less butts in seats, which leads to an eventual shift in powers and schools possibly having to give up programs. I know that may come off as extreme but again this is only my opinion on why you shouldn't go with the likeness/name model. If anyone can find me a reason why basketball programs can't give their scholarship players 1% of the revenue generated by the program i'd be shocked (for those in favor of paying that is) [/QUOTE]
