Unlike some of my peers in college athletics, I know the exact dollar value of my time as a varsity athlete. It is zero dollars and zero cents. But, also unlike some of my peers, that amount is not dictated by the NCAA. Even if the NCAA’s concept of amateurism never existed, I would have no hope of earning money from my sport. And I’m OK with that.
But I’m not OK with kids getting robbed while they put themselves at risk of injury, the NCAA making incentives against a college education, or institutional greed bankrupting younger generations of their role models. And that’s what’s happening today.
The argument that the NCAA and colleges/universities across the country frequently make is that students receive enough; they receive an education that catapults them into the rest of their lives, equipped with the lessons of hard work. They are students, and not employees.
