Message: [QUOTE="Waltdods, post: 2159778, member: 2932"] Tony Bennet makes roughly $3 million a year. UVa could take half of that, distribute a share to each of the players on the team, and all those players would have a six-figure income. But Bennett gets to sell his services in a free market, and the players don't. There is a ton of money sloshing around this system. Rules have been set up that allow that money to go literally everywhere except the players. So it gets pushed to coaches, or to practice facilities, or to dorms, or to hiring a dozen different hangers-on for a program with 12 players, or to recruiting trips, or to any number of other ways that make many people rich.
