And this is the column I wrote earlier this year about Rep. Mark Walker (R-NC), who introduced a bill earlier this year that would force schools and the NCAA to allow athletes to profit off their names. https://t.co/Rxj48p37p6

Gene Smith statement: “While the formation of this group is an important step to confirming what we believe as an association, the group’s work will not result in paying students as employees. That structure is contrary to the NCAA’s educational mission.”

On where I think the NCAA group co-chaired by Gene Smith will land on the idea of college athletes getting outside compensation https://t.co/3D7yBcWjmo

I believe they deserve some monetary solution however they are also getting a free education which is priceless if they use it to their advantage...…..

This is a very complicated issue...…….

Does a quarterback get paid more than a offensive lineman?
Do all schools pay the same?

It is the end of the college system and football as we know it...…….

Not sure what the answer is but I believe they should get a cut of the profits...…...

I was not aware they have made any decision on a model. It is my understanding there are numerous models that could allow so call student athletes to cash in on their likeness. The issue is the jersey they are wearing belongs to the school.

 

I know. I used to play that game all off season into the next season...…….

They could name their price and I would pay it to play a new edition...…..

 

The NCAA is beginning to consider allowing college athletes earn money from their names, likenesses, and images; California may force the issue https://t.co/pCU0Exg3PO

If the "Fair Pay to Play Act" passes and the NCAA doesn't change its stance on amateurism, would that lead to an enormous recruiting advantage for California schools? @McCannSportsLaw on a new bill that could shake up collegiate athletics https://t.co/2fKtiwvuja

This California bill would allow college players to hire agents, sign endorsement deals and negotiate with private companies for use of their name, image and likeness in video games, sneakers and other goods--and neither their colleges nor NCAA would be able to stop them.

This could be a game changer.

 

How NCAA athletes could profit from their name, image and likeness. Get royalty checks on NCAA Football, the same way NFL players do for Madden. No Title IX, no school involvement. Make it collectible at end of eligibility. Boom. Done. https://t.co/fc85PRKOdw
