LGR4GM Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Posted March 17, 2015 In that case, you would be in clear violation of the NCAA rules. It happens 100 time a day in college towns all over the USA. Especially the "company" part. But I fear we have veered off topic. I think the NCAA itself is broken. Quote

I think the NCAA itself is broken. Specifically, the rules against athletes being "paid" specifically outlaw the athlete from receiving complimentary drinks at a bar. (Other than at ND and BYU, I'm pretty sure they're allowed to whoever they want.) Quote

That Aud Smell Posted March 17, 2015 Report Posted March 17, 2015 Title IX says hello. Which is why I envision the revenue programs existing outside the universities, as nonacademic businesses that trade on the history and tradition of the schools whence they came. Unlikely, I know. But that is what should happen. Quote
ubkev Posted March 17, 2015 Report Posted March 17, 2015 Well this issue has been an issue since forever. Hell, in the early 90s they were making movies about it. The Program and Blue Chips are probably the best examples. I don't see this issue going away for quite some time. Quote

I thought it was pretty amazing how in-depth and organized the shadow booster network is. Quote
